They’re here! Solution Tracks deliver next-level testing – on demand!

Solution Tracks are exciting new Ethernet test solutions from Teledyne LeCroy! These software-based test features are aimed at developers who need more advanced testing than those already covered in our standard package of test software. There are currently four Solutions Tracks, each available only for specific traffic generators:

Solution Tracks are dynamic – new features and enhancements will be added over time in response to customer demand and as the technology evolves.

New 2-port version of Z400 Thor delivers twice the power!

The new 2-port version of our Z400qx Thor traffic generator doubles your test capacity while delivering the same extreme flexibility.

  • Test seven speeds from 400GE down to 10GE in a single module
  • Two QSFP‑DD ports allow testing of 56G PAM4 and 25G/10G NRZ SerDes
  • Advanced L1, PCS & PMA analysis with clock sweep, lane skew, PRBS and SIV

Whether you’re validating switches, routers, or NICs, the Z400qx Thor is available in a compact desktop chassis or our scalable B2400 chassis – up to 12×400G ports — all powered by XenaManager and XOA automation. More ports. More insight. Same Thor strength ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Xena releases new 4-port version of Z100 Loki

To meet the demand for greater 100G port density, Xena has released a new 4-port version called Z100qx Loki for testing 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G and 100G (NRZ) Ethernet.

The Z100qx Loki is available in both our fixed compact chassis as well as our modular Bay2400 which can hold up to nine Z100qx, effectively providing 36 x 100G test ports in a 4U chassis.

Xena supports Ultra Ethernet 

Teledyne LeCroy is now a member of the Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC)

“As AI and HPC workloads continue to push the boundaries of performance and scalability, the need for a next-generation Ethernet architecture has never been greater. The UEC’s mission to redefine Ethernet for these demanding environments aligns perfectly with our passion for innovation in network analysis and test solutions,”  says Jacob Christensen, General Manager.

“We’re excited to be part of this groundbreaking journey and look forward to collaborating with fellow UEC members to shape the future of Ethernet by ensuring robust, high-performance deployments across AI and HPC ecosystems.”

What we do best

Validation Testing

Want to verify the functionality and performance of a new Ethernet product matches its specifications?

The Xena test platform is a versatile solution that quickly and reliably delivers accurate results without breaking your budget.

QA
Testing

Need to verify how an Ethernet product performs under challenging environmental and operating conditions?

Xena is a robust platform with a range of standard test applications and automation options to streamline QA testing prior to production.

Production Testing

Want to test your Ethernet products as they leave the factory to catch problems before they reach your customers?

Xena is used by manufacturers globally for e.g. router testing, two-way interactive tests, aggregation and loopback testing.

Protocol Analysis

Ethernet continues to expand into new markets and incorporate new protocols. The increasing adoption of lossless Ethernet standards like FCoE, RoCE, and NVMf, along with the rise in Ethernet line-rates to 800Gbps – and soon 1.6Tbps – presents significant test and validation challenges.
