• Industry’s most powerful trace capture: Xgig provides 100% capture at full line rate of 10 Gb/s backed by the largest trace buffer (2 GB per XFP port and 4 GB per blade) in the industry.
• Multiple protocol supported on a single blade: Blades support both 10GbE and Fibre Channel protocols.
• Multiple Data Tapping Methods: Two data tapping methods give developers the option between nominal signal quality impact and data stream clean-up.
• Multiple interface connection support: Xgig 10GbE blades support 850nm Multimode XFP, 1310nm Single mode XFP, and copper XFP interfaces.
• Maximum time-sync group: Up to 32 ports can be time synchronized under one domain
• External trigger in/out and reference clock in/out connections: Allows synchronization with other testing systems.
