Ethernet ConsortiaEthernet technology is present in almost every networking device on the market and the UNH-IOL has been testing it since we first opened our doors in 1988. The UNH-IOL has the ability and knowledge to test most speeds and port types of Ethernet in use today: 
New ServicesEnergy Efficient EthernetThe UNH-IOL offers testing for Clause 78 through the Ethernet consortia and testing programs below. Visit a consortium's test suites page for more information.40/100 Gigabit Ethernet ConsortiumThe UNH-IOL has launched the 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet Consortium, offering testing in the newest and fastest Ethernet technologies.Consortia and Testing Programs10 Gigabit Ethernet ConsortiumOur 10 Gigabit Ethernet Consortium offers testing that covers the most popular optical and copper port types. Backplane Ethernet ConsortiumThe Backplane Ethernet consortium is launching a wide range of exhaustive test suites designed to test both conformance to standards and cross-vendor interoperability of your IEEE 802.3ap-2007. Gigabit Ethernet ConsortiumGigabit Ethernet is quickly surpassing Fast Ethernet in ports shipped per year, so verifying your implementation is extremely important. Our GigE conformance and interoperability test suites for 1000BASE-T copper and 1000BASE-X fiber devices will give you confidence that your implementation will work in the real world. Fast Ethernet ConsortiumWhile Fast Ethernet is no longer the new guy in town it has a huge install base, and this means it is important to make sure your implementation works. Our Fast Ethernet Consortium has been testing 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX devices since 1993 and has compiled an extensive testbed of new and legacy devices as well as a large number of conformance test suites. Power over Ethernet ConsortiumPower over Ethernet is integrated into many Ethernet products. The Power over Ethernet Consortium offers conformance and interoperability testing for both Power Sourcing Equipment and Powered Devices. 10BASE-T Testing Service10BASE-T is one of the oldest technologies we test and we are still testing it today. Our testing service offers 10BASE-T MAC and MAU testing for a low one-time fee. Non-Member Ethernet TestingThe Ethernet Consortia are now offering test suites on a "pay as you go" basis.
