Valkyrie is used to configure and generate Layer 2-3 stateless Ethernet traffic at all speeds up to 800G and analyze how network devices and services perform in response. Valkyrie offers an extensive range of copper and optical Gigabit Ethernet test modules, making it ideal for lab-based data-plane test scenarios that don’t require routing protocols.
Valkyrie offers 18 test modules which are divided into 4 groups based on which SerDes speeds they support:
Odin test modules can test:
10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1G, 2.5G, 5G & 10G using 10Gbps SerDes NRZ
Loki test modules can test:
10G, 25G, 40G, 50G and 100G using 10Gbps or 25Gbps SerDes NRZ
Thor test modules can test:
10G, 25G, 40G, 50G and 100G using 10Gbps or 25Gbps SerDes NRZ
+
50G, 100G, 200G & 400G using 56Gbps SerDes PAM4
Freya test modules can test:
100G, 200G, 400G and 800G using 112Gbps SerDes PAM4
Valkyrie test modules can be mounted in either a modular 4U ValkyrieBay which has 12 slots, or the 1U ValkyrieCompact with one fixed slot.
The 4U ValkyrieBay offers greater flexibility and scalability. For example it can hold up to 6 x 800G or 144 x 10G ports. The 1U ValkyrieCompact however is easier to transport and suitable for desktop use.
The chassis and test modules are controlled via ValkyrieManager, a Windows GUI client provided for ad-hoc test execution, and remote management of test equipment located in multiple locations.
Bundled together with ValkyrieManager are:
