Xgig 1000 32/128 G FC & 25/50/100 GE Analyzer

The first comprehensive, multiprotocol instrument for all SAN/NAS technologies

Extensive Xgig capabilities and flexibility provide unmatched network visibility to more easily identify and resolve problems, accelerate new product design, and speed time-to-market.

The VIAVI Xgig 1000 32/128 G Fiber Channel and 25/50/100 G Ethernet platform is the only product that addresses 8G/16G/32G/128G FC and 10/25/50/100 GE in an integrated, portable platform with reconfigurable ports.  This is a successor to the Xgig 1000 16 G FC and 10/40 GE platform offering the same advantages and value of being a protocol test tool in manufacturer R&D labs and helping field installers deploy and troubleshoot data centers. It is also the only platform to perform inline, non-intrusive capture and analysis and inline jamming (error injection). The Xgig 1000 32/128 G FC & 25/50/100 GE platform uses the industry’s first true analog pass-through adapter keeping the linear nature of signal over copper connections. The platform offers unmatched visibility to the OSI Physical layer such as Auto Negotiation, Link Training and Forward Error Correction (FEC).
