Keysight Demonstrates First Full Line Rate 1.6 Terabit Ethernet Test Capability

03/19/2025

Keysight Technologies, Inc. and Credo Semiconductor set a new milestone by developing a joint testbed that demonstrates the first IEEE P802.3dj draft specification compliant 1.6 terabit (T) Ethernet measurement system running full line rate layer 2 Ethernet traffic on a real world hardware development platform. This demonstration provides proof that 1.6T Ethernet speed is possible and that its performance can be measured.

Network bandwidth demand continues to grow 30-40% annually, driven in large part by the need for today's large-scale networks to support data intensive technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), video streaming, cloud networking, and high-performance computing. To keep pace, network equipment manufacturers, silicon chip manufacturers, and data center operators must build and operate next generation 1.6T Ethernet networks.
