The Ixia LM1000SFPS4 is a network load module engineered for high-performance testing and validation across demanding network environments. This four-port line card delivers 1 Gbps per port through SFP interfaces, supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet connectivity. SFP transceiver flexibility enables deployment with fiber or copper media, adapting to existing infrastructure requirements. The module integrates into Ixia testing chassis, functioning as a key component within broader network test solutions.
## Technical Specifications
• Port Configuration: 4 x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet SFP ports
• Data Rate: 1 Gbps per port
• Interface Type: SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable)
• Transceiver Compatibility: SFP transceivers for flexible fiber and copper connectivity
• Physical Dimensions: 12 x 12 x 2 inches (approximate)
• Operating Humidity: 0% to 85% non-condensing
• Storage Temperature: 5°C to 50°C
## Key Features
• Four independent 1 Gbps Ethernet ports deliver parallel traffic generation and analysis
• SFP transceiver modularity supports mixed-media deployments without hardware redesign
• Integrated into Ixia chassis architecture for streamlined test topology scaling
• Low-profile form factor optimizes rack density in test lab environments
## Typical Applications
• Network performance validation under sustained load conditions
