Interfaces: Gigabit Ethernet
The dual port Gigabit Ethernet interface is designed to generate, monitor and capture 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet wire-rate traffic, while performing real time simultaneous analysis of the seven OSI layers.
This module comes standard with 2 RJ-45 connectors for 10/100/1000 UTP and 2 1000 SC LX GBIC connectors using a 1310 nm single mode optical fibre. Additional GBIC connectors are available; RJ-45 connectors for 1000BASE-T and SC connectors for 1000 SX GBIC using a 850 nm multi mode optical fibre.
Up to 7 Gigabit modules (14 ports) can be plugged into the InterWatch 96000 unit, 3 modules (6 ports) on the InterWatch M7 (95000), allowing comprehensive system load testing across multiple ports simultaneously.
The Gigabit Ethernet interface provides application testing support for leading IP, VoIP, MPLS, GMPLS and UMTS technologies with the ability to test network equipment with traffic from up to 1024 simultaneous connections per port. Nine user-definable filters provide comprehensive real-time IP traffic analysis. Additional application focus testing includes wire rate real-time IP Performance (RFC 2544) and QoS testing. The interface also provides generation of multiple Ethernet frames of MAC, VLAN, MPLS, IP or TCP/UDP traffic flows independently on each port.
Combined with the powerful capabilities of the InterWatch Performance & Verification System, the modular architecture of the Gigabit Ethernet interface provides equipment manufactures and network operators a world-class testing solution during the network development and verification process.
