VIAVI Solutions introduced the Xgig® Protocol Exerciser for the 5P16 Platform for protocol traffic validation and performance evaluation.
Together with the recently introduced Xgig® 5P16 Analyzer — a 16-lane protocol analysis system for PCIe 5.0 — the VIAVI Xgig Protocol Exerciser enables real-time emulation, manipulation and analysis of PCIe 5.0 data traffic at all layers of the stack.
"Component and equipment manufacturers are in a race to develop robust technologies that can reliably handle emerging compute-intensive applications, from 400 Gigabit Ethernet and hyperscale networks to artificial intelligence," said Tom Fawcett, VP and GM, Lab and Production Business Unit, VIAVI. "The flexibility and performance of the Xgig Protocol Exerciser helps manufacturers like Broadcom lead in that race by enabling validation of complex test cases that were not previously possible."
The VIAVI Xgig Protocol Exerciser enables in-depth protocol evaluation and debugging at 32Gbps per lane, as well as testing for PCIe compliance, allowing development of network technologies to meet the demands of tomorrow’s high-speed, high-performance computing applications. The Xgig Exerciser Solution includes a system chassis, test stand interposer for device under test (DUT) connectivity, and the exerciser license key. With a modular architecture and an implementation tightly coupled to a full-featured analysis system, the Xgig Protocol Exerciser reduces the need for extra hardware investments, while a familiar Xgig management interface helps limit training needs, minimizing overall design and development costs.
