The Ethernet electrical test software allows you to automatically execute Ethernet physical-layer (PHY) electrical tests and displays the results in a flexible report format. In addition to the measurement data, the report provides a margin analysis that shows how closely your device passed or failed each test. The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support performs a wide range of electrical tests required to meet the XAUI, 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO electrical specifications as documented in the XAUI (IEEE 802.3-2005, Clause 47), 10GBASE-CX4 (IEEE 802.3-2005, Clause 54), XAUI-based CPRI, OBSAI RP3, and Serial RapidIO standards. To meet signal quality requirements, your product must successfully pass conformance testing based on these specifications. Performing these tests gives you confidence in your design. The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE[1]CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support helps you execute a wide subset of the conformance tests that can be measured with an oscilloscope.

Transform complexity into simplicity

• The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support offers several features to simplify the validation of Ethernet designs:

• Setup wizard for quick and clear setup, configuration and test

• Wide range of XAUI, 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO electrical tests for standards conformance

• Accurate and repeatable results with Keysight Infiniium oscilloscopes

• Automated reporting in a comprehensive HTML format with margin analysis

With the D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support, you can use the same oscilloscope you use for everyday debugging to perform automated testing and margin analysis based on those electrical standards.

D9010XAUC Compliance Test Application Software Saves You Time

The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support saves you time by setting the stage for automatic execution of all the required electrical tests. Part of the difficulty of performing electrical tests for Ethernet transmitters is properly connecting to the oscilloscope, loading the proper setup files, and then analyzing the measured results by comparing them to limits published in the specification. The Ethernet electrical compliance test application software does much of this work for you. The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support automatically configures the oscilloscope for each test, and it provides an informative results report that includes margin analysis indicating how close your product is to passing or failing that specification.

Easy test definition

The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support extends the ease-of-use advantages of Keysight’s Infiniium oscilloscopes to testing XAUI, 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO designs. The Keysight automated test engine walks you quickly through the steps required to define the tests you want to make, set up the tests, perform the tests, and view the test results. A setup page enables you to quickly make decisions from the outset regarding the choice of tests and perform functions that affect the testing task. The test selections available in the following steps are then filtered according to the choices made in the setup page. While selecting tests, you can select a category of tests all at once or specify individual tests. You can save tests and configurations as project files and recall them later for quick testing and review of previous test results. Straightforward menus let you perform tests with a minimum of mouse clicks.

Compliance measurement tests

The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support allows you to run single or multiple tests based on your needs. Highlight a test to show more details including tests limits and references to related details of the specification. Accurate and repeatable results give you confidence in your measurements. You can also specify the number of test trials and only stop running selected tests when the stop condition is met. The application will save the worst-case test result to help you track down the anomalies in your signals.

Test performed

The D9010XAUC XAUI electrical validation application covers transmitter electrical parameters of XAUI and 10GBASE-CX4 devices based on the specifications from IEEE 802.3-2005. In addition, the application's debug mode allows control of parameters that can be changed to test to other XAUI derived specifications.

The D9010XAUC also provides support for tests common to 10-gigabit Ethernet XAUI for the following standards:

• Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) based on version 3.0 of the specification

• Open Base Station Architecture Initiative (OBSAI) Reference Point 3 (RP3) based on version 3.1 of the specification

• Serial RapidIO based on Part 6 of the RapidIO Interconnect Specification Rev. 1.3

• 10-gigabit Fibre Channel XAUI

These standards were based on the XAUI electrical interface from IEEE 802.3-2005 clause 47, with the goal that electrical designs for XAUI may be reused after suitable modification.

Configurability and Guided Connection

The D9010XAUC XAUI Compliance Test Application Software with 10GBASE-CX4, CPRI, OBSAI, and Serial RapidIO Support provides flexibility in your test setup. The application lets you define controls for critical test parameters such as voltage threshold values, number of waveforms used for analysis and customizable violation settings. Once you have configured the tests, the connection page will display the connection diagram for the test you have selected. The compliance application guides you to make connection changes with hookup diagrams when the tests you select require it.
