Ixia s 12-slot Optixia XM-12 High Performance modular chassis provides an ultra-high density, highly flexible platform and delivers the industry s most comprehensive solution for performance, functional, and conformance testing of network equipment and network applications. Operating in conjunction with Ixia s test applications, the XM12 chassis provides the foundation for high performance, layer 2-7 test solutions.
The chassis supports up to 192 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 96 - 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 6 - 40 or 100 Gigabit Higher Speed Ethernet ports, 24 packet over SONET (POS) ports, or 24 asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) ports.
XM12 chassis support an integrated test controller that manages all system and testing resources. Resource ownership at a per-port level, coupled with hot-swappable interface modules, ensures a highly flexible and multi-user testing environment. A load module form factor adapter assures backward compatibility with existing Ixia standard form factor interface modules and provides seamless migration from and integration with existing Ixia test system installations.
