Interconnect and Network Performance Tester 800GE
Portable, quiet, and energy-efficient 50GE to 800GE PAM4 Ethernet benchtop test system
Highlights
- Employ a portable, lightweight, and quiet benchtop chassis in two-port and four-port OSFP800 models.
- Run more tests simultaneously to increase test throughput on a multiuser (up to four users per chassis), multiport, and multispeed platform.
- Perform scale and performance testing of Layer 2 and Layer 3 network protocols by using RFC benchmarks, with REST API / RestPy automation support.
- Emulate, automate, and validate real-world artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) workloads with Keysight IxNetwork software for fast, reliable, and scalable performance testing.
- Conduct Layer 1 BERT to Layer 3 IP testing from 50GE to 800GE PAM4 with 106.25 Gb/s and 53Gb/s PAM4 signaling in a single test system.
- Receive support for up to 30 W of power and cooling per port for high power consumption optical transceivers.
- Validate interoperability, link stability, and reliability of 400GE and 800GE optical and copper interconnects.
- Accelerate AI training completion time and reduce costs by leveraging the capabilities of the Keysight AI Data Center Builder.
Challenge: Testing Performance of 800GE from Silicon to AI and HPC Networks
The ecosystems for 800GE component and network infrastructure continue to rapidly expand in traditional and AI networks. To support this growth, data center providers focus on latency, throughput, operations, intelligence, and security. Testing is critical for manufacturers and end users of silicon chips, optical transceivers, cables, and network equipment. Users must trust that the products they receive have undergone stress-testing in an environment that simulates how they will operate in their actual networks.
New AI, ML, and high-performance computing (HPC) applications are also driving the growth of network infrastructures in large data centers. Additionally, there are many types of optical transceivers and active and passive interconnect devices, each with different wavelengths, media types, and operating ranges. They all support multirate Ethernet speeds. Network operators manage and configure these interconnects by using the Common Management Interface Specification. Validating the functionality and performance of numerous optical and copper interconnects in various configurations is critical. Once they connect to networking equipment, benchmarking and testing for interoperability, link quality, reliability, and performance are necessary.
Solution: Unsurpassed Test Coverage in a Portable Benchtop System
The narrow focus of many benchtop solutions limits the types of tests they can perform. That approach is satisfactory for some applications. However, the Keysight Interconnect and Network Performance Tester Benchtop 800GE delivers a high degree of functionality for Layer 1 BERT and Layer 2 / 3 switch and router performance testing. The multiuser platform provides sophisticated and versatile networking, multiprotocol emulation performance, and scale testing, including validation of AI, ML, and HPC applications.
