The Z01sx Odin is an enhanced version of Xena’s low-cost 6 port 1 Gigabit Ethernet test module. It offers more transmit streams, more modifers per stream and support for Priority Flow Control.
An enhanced version of Xena’s standard Z01s Odin test module, the Z01sx Odin is a 6 port 1 Gigabit Ethernet test module that offers more transmit streams (256 instead of 32) six modifiers per stream (instead of 2), plus support for Priority Flow Control.
The Z01sx Odin is available for both the 4U 12-slot XenaBay chassis and the robust transportable 1U XenaCompact chassis, and is provided with a full range of complimentary software.
