EXFO EPX 5000 Dual Gigabit Ethernet Transceiver

The EXFO EPX 5000 Dual Gigabit Ethernet Transceiver is a high-capacity module designed for testing, verifying, and troubleshooting Gigabit Ethernet links in both optical and electrical domains. Supporting dual ports, it enables simultaneous bidirectional traffic generation and analysis at line rate, making it ideal for validating performance under real-world traffic loads. The module provides deep insights into layer 1 through layer 4 protocols, supporting RFC 2544 benchmarking, BERT, latency, and throughput measurements. With traffic filtering and capture capabilities, it aids in diagnosing intermittent faults and protocol misconfigurations. Seamlessly integrated into EXFO’s EPX test platforms, it allows remote operation, scripting, and automation for scalable test environments. Its hot-swappable design supports fast module changes without system downtime, enhancing productivity in multi-user lab setups. The EPX 5000 is a reliable solution for carriers, equipment vendors, and enterprise IT teams deploying or maintaining Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure across access, metro, and core networks.
