Functional Testing

Test. Improve. Repeat.

Functional Ethernet testing is done during the research and development phase of a product or service. It can cover many parameters depending on the DUT and the application. Using Xena’s products, your range of functional Ethernet testing includes:

  • Multicast
  • 40/100G PCS and PMA Layer
  • Transparent Transport
  • Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
  • Microbursts and random IFG
  • Synchronous Ethernet
  • Automotive Ethernet
  • 1588v2 Performance Testing
  • Regression testing
  • Kernel drivers and NIC testing
  • Hardware emulation (ASIC)

CASE STORY

SWITCHING TO XENA

A Chinese switch manufacturer urgently needed a traffic generation and analysis solution to test the stability and performance of different switches in an EMC test environment. The challenge, however, was that their Devices Under Test (DUTs) were located in different labs in different buildings, and on different floors.
