This unit
The Ixia LM1000T is a Gigabit Ethernet load module for the Ixia 1600 chassis, delivering wire-speed Layer 2–3 traffic generation and analysis. Each module provides two 1000-BaseT RJ-45 ports with 4 MB buffer capacity, supporting up to 256 streams per port or 32,000 flows with millions of unique packets per stream. The module generates valid, undersized (down to 12 bytes), oversized (up to 65,536 bytes), and error packets - including alignment, dribble bit, bad CRC, and no-CRC variants. Address fields support incrementing, decrementing, or random MAC and IP configurations for simultaneous Layer 2 and Layer 3 testing.

Ixia LM1000T — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Ixia LM1000T. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Ixia LM1000T faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.
Ixia LM1000T price
This Ixia LM1000T is listed at $1,450. Calibration is available separately from $450. Contact us for volume pricing or if you need multiple units.
Ixia LM1000T calibration cost
NIST-traceable calibration for the Ixia LM1000T is $450 (standard — pass/fail certificate and calibration sticker) or $650 (full measured data at every test point, reference standards documented, traceability chain included). Calibration for this instrument covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. Turnaround is 1 to 3 business days after receipt. See full calibration details →
