Forums Set G.hn Chipset Plugfest
May 18, 2011
Chipset manufacturers will have their first major opportunity to test the interoperability of their products for the new G.hn home networking standard. The event will take place from May 23-27, 2011 and will be hosted at the ITU facilities in Geneva, Switzerland. The G.hn Chipset Interoperability Plugfest is a joint effort by the HomeGrid Forum and the Broadband Forum, and is being facilitated by the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL).
HomeGrid Forum and Broadband Forum Announce First Open G.hn Chipset Interoperability Plugfest
May 17, 2011
The HomeGrid Forum plans to host a "plugfest" next week, testing the interoperability of networking products that use the upcoming, awkwardly-named G.hn wired home networking standard before a launch later this year.
G.hn Home Networking Standard Reaches a Milestone
May 17, 2011
The new G.hn home networking standard has attracted a great deal of attention, not only because it promises to deliver data reliably at high speeds over multiple media, but also because unlike other home networking technologies it will be supported by multiple chip suppliers. G.hn chipset manufacturers will have their first major opportunity to test the interoperability of their products at the the first open G.hn chipset interoperability plugfest next week. The plugfest is organized by the HomeGrid Forum and...
HomeGrid Forum, Broadband Forum to hold G.hn chipset interoperability Plugfest
May 17, 2011
Silicon vendors building products to comply with the ITU's G.hn home network standard will soon get their chance to test product interoperability at the ITU's Geneva headquarters.
UNH-IOL selects Spirent for NPD testing
May 10, 2011
University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL) has selected performance analysis and service management services provider Spirent Communications to use its system to address network protection device (NPD) testing. Testing with Spirent will enable UNH-IOL to check that related NPDs meet necessary security requirements. UNH-IOL will use Spirent Avalanche for multi-10Gbps capacity, security and performance testing. The 1Gbps and 10Gbps Layer 4-7 multi-protocol system also delivers the ability to test devices to their limits at line rate. The system simulates...
UNH lab works its magic on mobility
April 1, 2011
The University of New Hampshire InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL) has long been renowned for its key role in helping get multivendor networking equipment and components to work together. So it's no surprise that it should be addressing a few issues concerning one of today's hottest communications areas: mobility.
The chips almost test themselves
April 1, 2011
With the test features they build into their PCIe switches and 10-Gbps PHY devices, the engineers at PLX Technology can see things their bench instruments can't.
Physical Layer Test Strategies for MIPI Standards
March 29, 2011
As the mobile and portable device industry began evolving, manufacturers were more or less on their own. Consequently, many technologies and interfaces, usually not well defined and often proprietary to component and subsystem vendors, were used. Such fragmentation tends to limit innovation by making it far more difficult to quickly bring out new mobile products with advanced features and higher performance or that deliver improved battery life and smaller form factors at lower costs.
University researchers focus on another kind of interoperability
March 23, 2011
In the public-safety sector, when one thinks of interoperability the image that immediately comes to mind is one where first responders from myriad response agencies are able to communicate with each other even though they are on disparate radio systems. But researchers at the University of New Hampshire have something else in mind. They're working to ensure interoperability of the components that go into a variety of consumer-oriented communications devices, including smart phones and tablet PCs. The goal not only...
