Simplify 1.6T Ethernet Testing: A New Way to Validate Interconnects

December 4, 2025 | 10:00 AM PST

1 Hour

As 1.6T Ethernet moves from concept to deployment, validating interconnects is more critical — and complex — than ever. But the challenge demands more than just speed — it’s proving performance in real-world conditions. Traditional test methods are slow and require manual intervention — adding complexity, longer development cycles, and gaps in validation.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how Keysight’s Interconnect and Network Performance Tester 1600GE (INPT-1600GE) and Interconnect Test System (ITS) software simplify validation. Together, they deliver accuracy, flexibility, and efficiency — all in an office-quiet, portable solution. You’ll also see a demonstration of the patented ITS Interconnect Library, which boosts productivity through automation.

You’ll gain practical strategies to:

Ensure reliability, stability, and interoperability of silicon chips, optical transceivers, active cables, and network equipment.

Reduce overhead costs with a streamlined platform designed for real-world testing.

Prepare for tomorrow with 212G bit error rate (BER) and forward error correction (FEC) validation.
