Cable Testing for OPEN Alliance TC9 Compliance at the lab

Excited to announce we are now offering OPEN Alliance TC9 Cable Testing. We have been approved as a test lab for 1000BASE-T1 cable testing to OPEN Alliance TC9, which allows for cable manufacturers to have unshielded and shielded twisted-pair cables be tested for conformance for Automotive Ethernet applications. This new service is a part of the suite of OPEN Alliance testing the lab, offers including TC1 and TC10 test specifications for 100BASE-T1 PHY Conformance. Check out the full news here & visit us at IEEE SA Ethernet & IP Automotive Technology Day!

Announcing the Release of Test Sentinel 2.0

Test Sentinel is an automation tool that supports the Broadband Forum’s Gfast Certification, DSL, and now Wi-Fi testing. This latest release, expands the capabilities of Test Sentinel’s custom testing, allowing users to create and run their own test scripts, while utilizing all of Test Sentinel’s existing features, including the results database, equipment normalization, device control, and robust debugging. Learn more about Test Sentinel in the upcoming webinar.

IOL INTERACT: Testing Validation for NVMe-oF and SSD Products

We’ve been busy! This past month we hosted two webinars showcasing the latest version of our NVMe Testing Software. IOL INTERACT version 12 supports NVMe-oF conformance testing over NVMe/FC, NVMe/RoCE, and NVMe/TCP. Many of the new features include support for some NVMe version 1.4 features. Check out both our webinars for use cases, demos of the tool, and more! Check out the NVMe-oF Webinar below or the SSD Webinar HERE.

IPv6 Test Software

Using the IOL INTACT® custom protocol software will accelerate your IPv6 Certification testing as well test for a variety of IPv6 and Routing protocols to help prepare for a variety of testing programs such as IPv6 Ready Logo, USGv6, Malaysia and ANATEL. Integrate into your development and QA process for immediate and continuous feedback to prepare your products for official testing.

Perfect for testing Security, Operating Systems, Firewalls, Home Routers, IoT solutions, Routers, Data Center Switches, Servers, Virtual Solutions, and Printers. Download your free demo or watch our latest webinar to learn about all the new features and updates.

OCP NIC 3.0 Boards

These test fixtures are necessary for testing within the OCP NIC subgroup (found under the OCP Server Work Group). The fixtures will arrive meeting the OCP NIC 3.0 Specification with a characterization of the boards. They also mate with the OCP form factor connector, and will allow an electrical break out of each signaling lane. Learn more today.

Big Risks & Great Rewards: HighTech Bound Intern Experience

Surabhi was a high school intern this past summer in our HighTech Bound program and gained a ton of new CS experience! Her project consisted of making an installation video for IOL INTERACT, an NVMe testing software, as well as developing a nightly build tool. Read her story to find out more!
