Flexible 10G 6-port Ethernet test module

The Z10sx Odin test module has 6 ports and supports testing of 4 speeds from 1G up to 10G Ethernet.

Based on Xena’s advanced architecture, the Z10sx Odin is a powerful and flexible test solution that allows independent configuration of speeds on all ports, so users can configure 1G on one port, 2.5G on another port, and so on, ensuring maximum port/speed flexibility.

It can be installed in our 12-slot 4U XenaBay chassis for multi-module setup, or delivered in the 1U XenaCompact chassis, making it a quiet and lightweight Ethernet test solution, with a customized flightcase available for safe, easy transportation.

Includes easy-to-use software and rich automation options
Xena’s XenaManager software is included with every Xena system. This robust multi-user management software lets customers generate advanced traffic streams and analyze traffic patterns via its easy-to-use GUI.

For customers preferring to configure their systems via CLI, the same configurations can be applied using Xena OpenAutomation.

Also included is Xena OpenAutomation (XOA), an open-source test automation framework featuring a Python API that runs on any OS. Fast, easy to use and extremely flexible, XOA can quickly create tailored tests, as well as run standardized test methodologies like RFC2544, Y.1564, RFC3918 and RFC2889.
