Keysight Technologies has partnered with the University of New Hampshire's InterOperability Lab to address automotive Ethernet compliance solutions. Among the goals is to establish an IEEE 802.3ch multigigabit automotive Ethernet compliance test solution, as well as other automotive Ethernet compliance tests in different speed grades. Keysight will provide the hardware, software, cables, and accessories needed for compliance testing. Built on hardware from Keysight's Infiniium UXR-Series Real-Time, the company expanded its automotive test solution portfolio with the Automotive Ethernet Transmit and Channel Test software solution for IEEE 802.3ch 2.5/5/10Gbps.

"We are pleased to partner with the UNH-IOL and extend the support to establish the multigigabit automotive Ethernet test station, which is the latest in automotive Ethernet PHY test standard," said Tom Goetzl, vice president and general manager for Keysight's Automotive and Energy Solution group. "The extended support announced here represents yet another way that Keysight is supporting the evolution and standardization of technologies for our automotive customers."

"We are excited about the recent addition of Keysight's Infiniium UXR oscilloscope and their Ethernet compliance test system to our automotive test bed," said Bob Noseworthy, Principal Engineer for Automotive Ethernet Technologies at UNH-IOL. "Our continued partnership with Keysight will help expand our automotive Ethernet testing services for multigigabit solutions, for chipset vendors, Tier1 or OEM automotive suppliers."
