The University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL) says it will take its interop capabilities on the road to London next week to host a multi-vendor G.fast interoperability demonstration within the Broadband Forum Interoperability Pavilion at the Broadband World Forum (BBWF), October 18-20. The demonstration aims to display interoperability among products from six companies based on chipsets from three different providers.

The UNH-IOL say it also will have the time to show live testing during the demo based upon...

BOSTON, MA--(Marketwired - Feb 24, 2016) - GMO GlobalSign , a leading provider of identity and security solutions for the Internet of Everything (IoE), has partnered with Infineon Technologies and the UNH InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL) to demonstrate the application of hardware, PKI and cloud services in IoT environments, creating an optimal balance between security, functionality and flexibility. GlobalSign and Infineon have chosen the UNH-IOL to provide independent and interoperability testing for the technologies to show how other...

With the Internet of Things (IoT) gaining traction, as evidenced by the technologies displayed at CES 2016, IPv6 traffic will continue rising. IPv4 addresses have been depleted, so the explosion of IoT devices (Gartner estimates 6.4 billion things will be online worldwide this year) is dependent on the IPv6 address inventory.

Service providers are planning on going to native IPv6 vs. continuing to use a carrier grade network address translation (NAT). But just because they deploy IPv6 to a...

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – Bringing optical fiber speeds and applications to customers around the world became significantly more achievable for service providers this week, as the Broadband Forum completed innovative work on the management of Fiber to the Distribution Point (FTTdp).

Managing fiber-fed nodes in the periphery of the access network using advanced software-based techniques not only opens the way to ultrafast broadband services but also provides further stimulus for developing technologies such as G.fast – which achieves fiber-like...
