Xgig® 5P16 Analyzer/ Exerciser Platform for PCI Express® 5.0

Highlights

32GTps, PCIe 5.0 data rate operation
Fully compatible with previous PCIe generations at 2.5G, 5.0G, 8G and 16GTps
Link widths to 16-lanes, including 1-, 2-, 4-, and 8-lanes
256GB memory (128GB upstream and 128GB downstream)
Memory segmentation for capture of multiple traces
Host-Client connection for remote debugging using Ethernet or local debugging using USB
SMB capture and trigger for NVMe Management Interface (NVMe-MI) observability
Supports full Analyzer functionality together with Exerciser operation
Highly flexible PCIe protocol generation and response (exerciser)
The Auxiliary ports allow multi-chassis operation
Decodes all PCIe and NVMe traffic at all layers of the stack including the TLP, DLLP, and PHY layer logic sub-blocks
Flexible trigger events include training sequences, ordered sets, queue pairs, PRPs, SGL, SMB, etc.
Cascade captures from up to four Xgig chassis into a single trace view
Full support of PCI Express LTSSM analysis
Field replaceable modular fan and power supply
LED’s give quick indicators of power and status
Works with the VIAVI Xgig software tool suite: Trace Control, Trace View, Expert
Supported by a wide variety of interposers (CEM, U.3, etc.)
