Real-World Traffic Emulation for 800GE and 1.6T Networks

The Interconnect and Network Performance Tester 1600GE (INPT-1600GE) is a new 1.6 Terabit Ethernet (1.6T) and down speeds hardware test platform for traffic generation and analysis with PAM4 over 212 Gb/s electrical lanes.

INPT-800GE from the INPT product family provides 2-port and 4-port benchtop option for 800GE and down speeds hardware test platform for traffic generation and analysis with PAM4 over 56 Gb/s electrical lanes.

INPT provides functional, performance, and interoperability benchmarks over a broad range of communication chips, interconnects, and networking equipment.

1.6T Traffic Generation

Test next-gen AI network components, interconnects, and cables at 800GE and 1600GE line rates, including FEC and bit error rate (BER) analysis.

Interconnect Performance

Delivers Keysight Layer 1 BERT with advanced physical-layer testing for PCS, FEC, and frame loss to ensure production-ready interconnects. Supports Layer 2/3 RFC benchmarking and protocol emulation for scale and performance. Uses CMIS for automated configuration, application detection, and optical signal monitoring.

AI Networking

Measure switch behavior under realistic congestion scenario with ROCEv2. Test Ultraethernet functionality.

Flexible Form Factor

Lightweight, office-quiet chassis and rackmount options enable 1.6T silicon, optics, and cable testing anywhere.

Interface speed modes 800GE, 400GE, 200GE, 100GE, 1600GE
