Most of us know Z400 as the Nordic god of thunder and lightning. But in the world of Ethernet testing world, Thor plays a starring role in Xena’s Ethernet Traffic Generation solutions.

Thor boasts some truly heroic features – like being able to test both NRZ and PAM4 speeds. For NRZ based Ethernet at data rates of 10G / 25G / 40G / 50G and 100G. And for PAM4 based Ethernet at data rates of 50G / 100G / 200G / 400G. It can also test Auto-Negotiation and Link Training (AN/LT).

In the Xena line we also have Z10 Odin (NRZ testing 10Mbps to 10G), Z100 Loki (NRZ testing 10G to 100G), and Z800 Freya (10G PAM4 to 800G PAM4) and in the future also 1.6 Terabits.

AI, cloud computing, and hyperscalers are accelerating the demand for ultra-high-speed, low-latency connectivity, taking us past Gigabit Ethernet and into the era of Terabit Ethernet.

Teledyne LeCroy’s Terabit Ethernet solutions are engineered to help you take full advantage of this new technology cycle. The Xena Ethernet Test Platform gives developers of semiconductor, NEMs, and hyperscalers the solutions they need to validate next-gen silicon, network devices, and interconnects with confidence.

From Layer 1 signal integrity and Layer 2 traffic generation and analysis, we have the solutions you need to simulate, stress, and certify real-world performance. Support for 224Gbps electrical lanes, advanced FEC, and PCS diagnostics ensure readiness for tomorrow’s networks. Compact, desktop-friendly hardware combined with intuitive software and powerful automation ensure seamless lab-to-production workflows.

Whether you’re path-finding 1.6T or optimizing 800G deployments, Xena can fast-track your innovation cycle. Test smarter, deploy faster and reap the rewards.

In Nordic mythology, Loki is the god of mischief. In the world of Ethernet testing, Z100 Loki is an important part of the Xena product line, which is Xena’s Ethernet Traffic Generation & Analysis (TGA) solution.

Z100 Loki supports testing of NRZ-based Ethernet at data rates of 10G / 25G / 40G / 50G / 100G.

In the Xena line we also have Z10 Odin (NRZ testing 10Mbps to 10G), Z400 Thor (NRZ testing 10 to 100G and PAM4 testing 50G to 400G), Z800 Freya (10G NRZ to 800G PAM4) and the Z1608 Edun (112G & 224G SerDes) which can generate up to 1.6Tbps.

Xena OpenAutomation (XOA) is an open-source test automation framework for use with all Xena solutions.

Fast, easy to use and extremely flexible, XOA features a Python API that runs on any OS. You can use XOA in whichever way suits your test needs.

There are three main options:

1. Use XOA CLI or XOA Python API to add Xena test equipment to your existing test automation setup.
2. Use XOA CLI or XOA Python API to add Xena testers and run Xena test suites via your existing test automation setup.
3. Use XOA to automate all your Ethernet testing.

Xena3918 provides an easy-to-use port configuration panel that lets you add and remove ports, and assign IP addresses and port roles. Ports from multiple XenaBay and XenaCompact chassis can be freely mixed.

• Makes it easy to create, edit and execute all test-types specified in RFC 3918
• Support for IPv4 and IPv6
• Multiple protocols supported per UNI (Ethernet, Customer and Service VLANs, MPLS, IPv4, IPv6, and UDP)
• Support for all IGMP/MLD versions
• Works seamlessly with multiple XenaBay and XenaCompact test chassis
• Ability to flexibly define protocol layers supported by the test incl. Ethernet VLANs, IP and UDP
• Extensive configuration options for fine-tuning tests

Odin might be the god of war in Nordic mythology, but in the world of Ethernet testing, Z10 Odin is a key part of Xena’s Ethernet Traffic Generator solution.

Odin can test Ethernet devices at 6 speeds up to 10Gbps – 10/100/1000M and 2.5/5/10G.

The Xena Traffic Generator platform includes Z100 Loki (NRZ testing 10G to 100G), Z400 Thor (NRZ testing 10 to 100G and PAM4 testing 50G to 400G), and Z800 Freya (10G NRZ to 800G PAM4) and in the future also 1.6 Terabits.
