DURHAM, N.H.--()--The University of New Hampshire InterOperability lab (UNH-IOL) announced today that SyntheSys Research, Inc. has delivered a 12.5GHz BERTScope, Clock Recovery and Pre-Emphasis Unit to the UNH-IOL. These 3 instruments will enable the UNH-IOL to expand its test capabilities for high-speed serial applications such as SSI, Backplane Ethernet, InfiniBand and SFP+.
“In addition to valuable co-operation with UNH-IOL using our system, we are confident it will assist in moving these technologies forward. SyntheSys Research remains dedicated to quality test and measurement for product validation and verification.”
"Equipment of this kind is vital to fostering interoperability among high speed serial applications,” said Jon Beckwith, Senior Engineer at the UNH-IOL. “SyntheSys Research's solution will help ensure these technologies improve by being tested in a neutral environment."
In addition to assisting the UNH-IOL’s Server System Infrastructure (SSI) certification program, the BERTScope, Clock Recovery and Pre-Emphasis Unit will be used to enhance the UNH-IOL’s Cable Testing Services and Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) test suites for its Backplane Ethernet testing program.
"We are proud to be an equipment supplier to the UNH-IOL,” said Bent Hessen-Schmidt, V.P. of Business Development. “In addition to valuable co-operation with UNH-IOL using our system, we are confident it will assist in moving these technologies forward. SyntheSys Research remains dedicated to quality test and measurement for product validation and verification."
