Put 400G to the test

400G network devices will help address the expanding demands for network link speeds expected to exceed 1 Tb/s. Testing is the fundamental building block to delivering reliable, high-performing systems and starts with validating the link’s ability to pass up to line rate traffic as well as testing the functionality, performance, scalability and QoE of the upper-layer engines that deliver services.

2018 Best of Interop Tokyo

Spirent 400G Ethernet Test Platform received 2018 Best of Show Award at Interop Tokyo. Developed to address today’s IEEE and MSA standards as they evolve, it supports 400/200/100/50GbE on a single test module with support available for QSFP-DD, OSFP, and CFP8 form factors. It is ideal for companies looking to launch products and services dependent on emerging high-speed, high-density technologies quickly and with confidence.

Spirent, China Telecom, Huawei Collaborate to Verify 400GbE

Spirent, China Telecom, Huawei Collaborate to Verify 400GbE. Tests included the verification of 400GbE port functions such as line-speed forwarding, multi-service stacking, and fault reporting for medium and long-range technologies using Spirent TestCenter.

 

Spirent, Huawei, Xilinx Collaboration

Spirent, Huawei and Xilinx collaborated to successfully complete a series of tests between the 400G Ethernet test solution and Huawei’s NE500E core router. The tests verified the Layer 1-3 quality and highlighted error-free performance with different combinations of streams, frame lengths and rates—including a single stream running at full line rate.

 

H3C S12516X-AF sets world record for Data center performance & scale at 100G

H3C commissioned independent test lab Network Test to validate the performance and scalability of its datacenter core switch. This is, by far, the largest assessment of 100G Ethernet switch performance yet conducted, with 768 100G Ethernet ports. Network Test assessed the H3C switch including performance stress tests, and in terms of control-plane metrics such as BGP and MP-BGP routing with IPv4 and IPv6 traffic; Ethernet VPN (EVPN) scalability using VXLAN tunnels; and the impact of in-service software upgrades (ISSU).

Features

Frame Analysis
Sends and receives Ethernet frames from 64 to 16K bytes in length. Allows modification of generated frame contents.
Performance Metrics
Delivers per-port and per-stream statistics such as latency, frames out of sequence, frame counts and rates. Provides Layer 1 statistics such as per lane Bit Interleave Parity (BIP) error counts and Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) indicators such as per lane alignment marker lock to help debug physical link problems.
Traffic
Captures received traffic at wire rate and compensates for small clock differences between link partners with parts per million (PPM) adjustment.
