Xgig1000 8 Port 10G/16G Chassis
The Xgig1000 8 Port 10G/16G system is a fixed blade chassis that houses one Xgig 10G/
16G blade with eight ports (four links). The Xgig1000 8 Port 10G/16G system supports the
Analyzer, Jammer, and Load Tester functions at 10.3125 Gbps in the 10 Gigabit Ethernet
protocol. Analyzer and Load Tester are supported in Analog Passthrough and Digital
Retime. Jammer is supported in Digital Retime only. This system also supports the
Analyzer, Jammer, and Load Tester functions at 4.2500, 8.5000, or 14.0250 Gbps in the
Fibre Channel protocol in Analog Passthrough or Digital Retime. This system supports a
4GB trace buffer per port. This fixed-blade system does not require or accept Xgig or
Xgig5000 blades. Xgig provides the necessary software tools running in a PC environment
to perform the application task using the blade fixed within the chassis.
