Xgig1000 Systems
The Xgig1000 Distributed Systems for Monitoring, Analysis, and Testing are multi-purpose
systems designed for product development, field service, and network operations
personnel. These chassis are bench setups but can be rack mounted. You can place them
at your data center or anywhere on your network. The Xgig1000 chassis can also be
directly connected to a PC to create a portable instrument for test or analysis.
The Xgig1000 systems can be accessed remotely using a LAN connection and software
to perform tasks. System administration and configuration can be performed over the
network.
Xgig1000 12G SAS Chassis
The Xgig1000 12G SAS is a fixed blade chassis that houses one Xgig 12G SAS blade with
8 ports (four links) that support the Analyzer, Generator, and Jammer functions in Analog
Passthrough mode only. The line rates supported are 3.0000, 6.0000, and 12.0000 Gbps.
This fixed-blade system does not require or accept Xgig or Xgig5000 blades. The 12G
SAS blade in the chassis is designed for use with the SAS-3 protocol. The 12G SAS blade
also supports the SATA protocol at 6.0000 Gbps and 3.0000 Gbps. Xgig provides the
necessary software tools running in a PC environment to perform the application task
using the blade fixed within the chassis.
The Xgig1000 12G SAS chassis is shown in Figure 1 .
NOTE
There are two generations of Xgig1000 chassis.
– The first generation does not have a power switch on the back of the chassis.
– The second generation has a power switch on the back of the chassis and comes
with a USB System Recovery Drive. This guide assumes you are using a second
generation chassis. Early versions of the second generation chassis require that
the
Front Panel Reset button be pressed when the chassis is initially powered up.
However, later versions do not require the Front Panel Reset button to be pressed
when initially powered up.
The primary difference in the instructions is in the start up and shutdown sequences.
The troubleshooting chapter in this guide is designed for the new generation chassis
and includes instructions for the use of the USB System Recovery Drive.
Troubleshooting information for first generation chassis is located in the appendix.
