SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
Nov. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/
-- Teledyne LeCroy and Spirent Communications, the global
leaders in Ethernet and Fibre Channel test and measurement
solutions, announced today the industry's first Ethernet generation
and test solution for developers of Pulse Amplitude Modulation
(PAM4) networks. Teledyne LeCroy and Spirent have
created the QSFP28 to SFP56 single w/PTAP adapter, an exclusive
PAM4 adapter allowing design and test engineers the ability to
source, synchronize, capture, and analyze PAM4 signaling for
emerging IEEE 802.3cd-based applications.
PAM4 signaling enables higher throughput Ethernet connections to
support the growing need for data storage and communications
speeds. These higher signaling rates require increased
attention to intricacies of establishing and maintaining robust and
healthy link connections. Spirent TestCenter generates IEEE
compliant 50GbE traffic for exercising these new Ethernet
links. Teledyne LeCroy's SierraNet analyzer captures and
decodes the traffic which is ported via the QSFP28 to SFP56 single
w/PTAP adapter module.
Early adopters of the IEEE 802.3cd for 50GbE Ethernet
transactions need generation and analysis tools to ensure their
designs are specification compliant. Teledyne LeCroy and Spirent
offer best-in-class solutions to ensure Network Equipment
Manufacturers (NEMs) new products meet customer expectations of
operation and conformance. The NEMs reliance on the Test and
Measurement community is increasing, as homegrown tools are not up
to the task. This relationship allows Teledyne LeCroy and
Spirent to focus on their core strengths, keep pace with market
needs, and offer leading edge tools, which are paramount to
successful Ethernet product deployments.
