The VIAVI 10 GigE/GigE Interface (J6873A) is a half-length, full-height PCI Express® interface card that provides full 10 gigabit capture, extensive filtering, and network key performance indicators to solve more network problems quickly.
The VIAVI Solutions J6873A 10 Gbps/1 Gbps Ethernet Interface provides advanced Ethernet packet capture and processing for VIAVI’s leading protocol test and diagnostic solution, the Signaling Analyzer. Never miss a network problem, capture all the data all the time under any network load. The J6873A is a next-generation design providing full packet capture and analysis of Ethernet based traffic at up to 40 Gbps with zero packet loss for all frame sizes (from 64 to 10,000 bytes). The J6873A enables real-time data from multiple ports in the network to be captured and merged into a single analysis stream.
