10BASE-T/Te Testing Service
Now offering Energy Efficient Ethernet IEEE 802.3az testing for the 10BASE-Te physical layer!The UNH-IOL's first consortium addressed 10BASE-T interoperability back in early 1990. Since that time the consortium has matured to the point where it has been replaced by a standardized testing service. The 10BASE-T Testing Service was formed in 1993. The 10BASE-T Testing Service is a one-time product test in which a company is not required to leave a product at the lab after the testing has been completed (Note: Leaving a representative piece of equipment at the UNH-IOL will cause the product to be added to our testing pool). Our Testing ServicesThe 10BASE-T Testing Service currently offers three test suites that can be performed on a 10BASE-T product. They are as follows:
The intent of most of the testing programs of the 10BASE-T Testing Service, and of the lab itself, is to isolate problems (bugs) in member's equipment before it gets into consumer's hands. It needs to be emphasized that the 10BASE-T Testing Service performs testing from a quality assurance point of view, not from a marketing or promotions point of view. Therefore, the 10BASE-T Testing Service limits the disclosure of specific product test results to the respective company only. We Work With You.The UNH-IOL will also design and develop additional tests if the areas covered by the existing test suites do not meet the needs of a given corporation. This contracted service varies with the need of the member, but it typically includes development or research for improving the interoperability of 10BASE-T network devices. Details are worked out on an individual basis. The UNH-IOL also provides Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, 10Gigabit Ethernet and Power over Ethernet Consortia. |
