ETHERNET TESTING

Validation, Quality Assurance and production testing of Ethernet devices

Ethernet is the de facto networking technology for the Internet, industry and data centers. Analysts predict the demand for e.g. Artificial Intelligence, hyperscalers, and 5G will drive Ethernet speeds from its current limit of 800Gbps to 1.6Tbps to 3.2Tbps – before 2030. Each time Ethernet’s top speed goes up, the race is on to upgrade network equipment. Teledyne LeCroy is one of the very few companies with the solutions and expertise to help you test the very limits of Ethernet
