Network Interface Cards

Test. Improve. Repeat.

Xena Networks light logo

Network Interface Cards (NICs) are one of the most ubiquitous components of the networks – the synapse that allows all the connected devices to actually become a network.

Customers around the world have been using Xena’s solutions to test NICs for over a decade: to verify new functionality during the R&D process, to verify standards compliance, to measure performance during production and to troubleshoot issues during deployment.

Case Story

Testing FPGAS & NICS

A leading ODM specializing in FPGAs and NICs had a large R&D facility in India. Acting on the recommendation of a US-based FPGA partner, they requested an evaluation of Xena’s Valkyrie platform to test their FPGAs at 100GE. This testing required multiple stream generation capabilities and RFC2544 testing.
