The
Extended Physical Layer Verification System combines bit
error rate testing, eye pattern signal synchronization and
versatile pattern generation in a single instrument. This is
a front line tool for physical layer verification of 1Gb/s
and 2Gb/s Fibre Channel, Gigabit Ethernet and InfiniBand
gigabit/second devices.

• Send Legal or Illegal 10B Patterns
• Bit Error Rate Test at 1.0625, 1.25, 2.125 & 2.5
Gbps
• Script with Predefined and Custom Elements
• Define in 8B or 10B
• Trigger-In to Start or Stop Data Generation

GTX-B Software
Verifying data integrity
is key to insuring the performance and reliability of
Gigabit-rate networks and systems. Physical layer testing
requires worst-case data loading and bit-by-bit data
checking with results presented in an industry accepted
format like BER. The GTX-B verifies data integrity by
sending industry-standard worst-case data patterns through
network devices. These data patterns are designed to stress
the physical layer of the system, with patterns specifically
developed to check frequency response, data dependencies and
network interface components. With bit-by-bit comparison,
any difference between the transmitted and received data is
detected, counted and captured for additional analysis.
Unique data patterns can be created to meet special test
requirements. The GTX-B is
protocol aware for Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel. The
unit recognizes data modifications allowed by devices on the
link and does not report them as errors. The GTX-B can also
greatly reduce manufacturing test times for test hubs, host
bus adapters, Fibre Channel RAIDs, and other active or
passive devices by stressing all of the components in the
data path. Eliminate the hours of test time looking for a
data-dependent error which happened only rarely in a normal
traffic stream.
