Xena Networks Valkyrie 5GE Test Modules
The new 5.0GE and 2.5GE standards are designed to ease congestion at Wi-Fi access points by boosting performance by up to 500% while reusing existing Cat5e/Cat6 cabling. This makes them much cheaper than upgrading to 10GE.
To help the many Network Equipment Manufacturers (NEMs) preparing to launch 2.5GE & 5.0GE networking devices, NextGig Systems offers the Xena Odin-10G-5S-6P-CU Ethernet test module which can test both 5.0 and 2.5GE, as well as 10GE, 1GE and 100 Mbps – all via the same device and using the same software.
This makes it ideal for quickly and cost-effectively validating 5G and 2.5G Ethernet performance on any device or network.
