Please advise about packet loss of switching hub

We are using a switching hub instead of a media converter when network testing(SFP+ <-> 10BASTE-T) with IXIA.

 

In this test, The MS510TX causes packet loss. On the other hand, the XS708E does not cause packet loss.
(That is, the XS708E is a wire-rate performance.)

 

We are thinking of buying the XS505M, does this hub causes packet loss like the MS510TX?

    tarkashi,

     

    Welcome to our community! :)

     

    I'm not quite sure if this XS505M will still have packet loss like the MS510TX. Have you tried to upgrade the firmware of the MS510TX? What have you done so far? Where are you seeing these losses?

     

    Regards,
