Conformance & Interoperability
Testing (Power & Data)
- Assess product’s compliance to standards early on
- IEEE 802.3-2022 (10BASE-T1L / SPoE)
- Ethernet-APL (10BASE-T1L Trunk and Spur)
- IEEE 802.3-2022 (10BASE-T1L / SPoE)
- Ethernet-APL (10BASE-T1L Trunk and Spur)
- Fully Automated
- High Throughput: All power and data tests on a port typically run in hours (instead of weeks with other approaches)
- Repeatable Results: Single universal test setup provides repeatable test results from lab to lab
- Approved for Ethernet-APL Power & Data Conformance Testing & Certification by these Standards Development Organizations (SDO’s): FieldComm Group, ODVA, Profinet International (PI), OPC Foundation
Simulate Real-World Environments
in the Lab
- Compare performance of devices from different vendors in real-world field environment
- Use over wide variety of test scenarios
- Find and solve issues before deployment
- Inject noise (AWGN, Impulse Noise, Alien Crosstalk)
- Inject cable faults (bad connector, shorts)
- Test over a wide variety of cable types and lengths (vary DC Resistance and Attenuation)
- Will it work on existing legacy cabling?
- Use IEEE 802.3-2022 and Ethernet-APL worst-case cable limits vs cables with plenty of margin
- System level testing
- Fully load switch ports and use load devices from different vendors
Fully Integrated & Economic Approach to Testing
Explore automated testing solutions for your Ethernet-APL and 10BASE-T1L / SPoE devices. Industrial communication devices need to be robust, compliant, and stable to prevent failures in the field. This can be achieved, from the initial design to the product validation stage, with a comprehensive yet flexible testing solution that reproduces field conditions in the lab. Manual testing is costly, complicated, and time consuming. Telebyte’s economically priced, automated testing solutions are designed to remove these barriers and typically pay for themselves in less than two years.
