The UEC Stack will mark a major evolution in Ethernet, integrating scalability, low latency, and congestion control for AI and HPC data centers. However, traditional testing won’t be enough. Learn why new assurance models, multi-KPI validation, and real-world traffic modeling will be essential for success—and what effective testing strategies involve. Significant leap forward in networking […]
224G SERDES is a high-speed interface technology that underpins next-generation 1.6Tb links. Getting 224G signals from the ASIC to the interconnect and beyond remains a key challenge for the deployment and scaling of 1.6Tb. Each 1.6Tb link uses 8 lanes of 224G signaling. For Ethernet, this actually runs at 212.5 Gb/s, which includes some overhead […]
As digital technologies advance and consumer demands shift, the global telecommunications industry is rapidly undergoing a transformation. Faster networks and lower latencies are required to support emerging technologies such as IoT networks/systems, AI and cloud computing. As such, telcos are evolving to resemble technology companies, with a focus that extends beyond what a traditional telco […]
The increasing complexity of networks – driven by constant software updates, the integration of AI and machine learning (ML), the rise of edge computing, and virtualised architecture – is placing relentless pressure on network operators. To navigate this complex environment effectively, operators are turning to digital twin technologies. These digital replicas of a physical network, […]
AI data centers are brimming with traffic, relying heavily on high-speed Ethernet and back-end fabrics that must perform with low latency and close to zero packet loss to avoid the expensive impact of idle GPUs. A new approach to testing can significantly improve performance and resiliency by stress-testing these fabrics with complex AI traffic patterns […]
