Xgig1000 2 Port 10G/40G Chassis
The Xgig1000 2 Port 10G/40G system is a fixed blade chassis that houses one Xgig 10G/
40G blade with two QSFP ports (one link). The two QSFP ports support the Analyzer func-
tion at 41.2500 Gbps in the 10 Gigabit Ethernet protocol in Analyzer Passthrough only. The
two QSFP ports can be used as eight SFP ports at 10.3125 Gbps by using two one-to-four
break out cables (one for each QSFP port) with male QSFP and female SFP connectors.
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.
