Streamline In-Vehicle Communications Development and Testing

Keysight in-vehicle communications products offer test coverage for a wide variety of technologies and data rates for the growing high-performance design and test requirements of modern in-vehicle networking systems. Automotive Ethernet provides a universal medium for high-speed communication that allows different components to coexist on the same switched network.  While several emerging automotive SerDes connections convert parallel data to serial data (and vice-versa), enabling communication for high resolution displays like cameras and infotainment. It is a point-to-point architecture with high bandwidth, low baud rates, and high orders of modulation employed. Our solutions help the development, validation, and debugging of CPUs, ECUs, cables, interconnects, and edge devices up to the latest standards.  Request a quote for one of our popular configurations today.

Multiple technologies

There are several different technologies that operate in the vehicle network. Conformance and interoperability for each of those is critical to the safety and security of modern vehicle architectures.

OSI layers 1–7 testing

Keysight delivers end-to-end Automotive Ethernet validation across OSI Layers 1–7. Testing begins at the physical layer and extends upward to include control-plane validation, timing accuracy, guaranteed delivery, and AVB/TSN performance.

Multi-gigabit data validation

Keysight automotive Ethernet and SerDes solutions validate multi-gigabit communication as modern ADAS and autonomous features demand the fastest data rates.

Tx, Rx, and Lx testing

Automate testing and validation across transmitter (Tx), receiver (Rx), and channel testing from 10 Mbps to 50 Gbps, providing increased test accuracy while saving time for rigorous compliance testing.

Measurement type Channel (Lx), Receive (Rx), Transmit (Tx)

The AE6000L Automotive Ethernet Channel Compliance Solution provides an automated way to test for pass/fail of connectors, cables, and harnesses.

Automotive Ethernet Conformance Test Software for Cables, Connectors and Harnesses

AE6900L is now AE6000L the functionality is the same, with just a different top level model number.

Next-generation ADAS systems require camera and radar systems with high resolution, which require increased speed and bandwidth. The automotive Ethernet standard enables faster data communication to meet the demands of today’s vehicles and the connected vehicles of the future. However, the channel or link in a system can create a point of failure and as such must be fully tested. Keysight’s automotive Ethernet conformance channel test solution verifies that information is carried, without loss or cross talk, to its intended destination.
The solution ensures signal quality requirements with conformance testing for the channel, including harness, cables or connectors. The solution is built on functional and multipurpose hardware that can be fully utilized for other tasks and tests when not actively used for automotive Ethernet channel tests. The AE6000L solution provides a bundle of hardware, software and accessories to help you understand the integrity of your automotive Ethernet channel.

Ordering information

The solution runs on a VNA with option TDR, choose benchtop (E5080B), PXI (M980xA series) or USB (P5000A Series). See configuration guidelines available in the datasheet.

The software requires Keysight PathWave Test Automation software.
