NVMe® Technologies
-
We have been a leader and expert in NVMe Testing Services for several years providing conformance and interoperability testing. In addition, we also host NVMe Plugfests where storage vendors from around the world come together to test against NVMe standards to qualify them for the NVMe Integrator's List. The NVMe Integrator's List currently consists of configurations that have proven to be interoperable and conformant to NVMe standards.

Time Sensitive Networks
-
Time Sensitive Network (TSN) standards enable deterministic real-time communication over Ethernet, allowing solutions to be built to provide extremely precise, predictable timing and control across the network. By adding features to Ethernet such as time synchronization, ingress policing, seamless redundancy, frame preemption, scheduled traffic, and stream reservation, TSN ensures data is not delayed by the network.

Time Sensitive Test Tools
-
We have developed a series of custom testing tools as part of our dedication to performing the most comprehensive testing in the industry. These tools allow for testing at lower layers than most commercially available tools and are available for use in your own testing labs. In addition, we have an extensive amount of T&M partner test tools which members of our testing services also have access to.

QualiPhyer Tools
-
QualiPhyer is a family of software packages used to test a product’s conformance to IEEE 802.3™ and MIPI Alliance electrical and optical standards for Ethernet and MIPI devices. These packages can be used to control oscilloscopes and traffic generators over Ethernet or GPIB connections to test the physical layer characteristics of devices. The software processes waveforms from the scopes to produce results based on algorithms developed at the UNH-IOL.

Protocol Testing Software
IOL INTACT®
-
To meet the needs of its higher layer protocol based conformance testing, we have developed a custom software test tool and API, named IOL INTACT® (Improving Networks Through Automated Conformance Testing). A modular and cross-platform API with built in packet generating, scheduling, triggering, and filtering capabilities offering fully automated protocol analysis and testing, the IOL INTACT software is used in a number of our Testing Services including IPv6, Routing, and Home Networking.

Test Fixture
OCP NIC 3.0
-
These test fixtures are necessary for testing within the OCP NIC subgroup (found under the OCP Server Work Group). These fixtures will arrive meeting the OCP NIC 3.0 Specification with a characterization of the boards. These fixtures mate with the OCP form factor connector, and will allow an electrical break out of each signaling lane.

Internet of Things
-
Working closely with service providers, equipment manufacturers, the IPv6 Forum and the LoRa Alliance, the UNH-IOL has developed extensive test beds to meet the demands of the growing industry. Our IoT testing can help ensure your products and services meet your customers' expectations with the highest quality possible.

NVMe Testing Software
IOL INTERACT™
-
IOL INTERACT™ software expedites and automates the testing of NVMe SSDs and NVMe-oF products. It is used to test products for inclusion on the NVMe Integrator's List. Members of the UNH-IOL NVMe Testing Services are entitled to a copy of INTERACT™ for in-house testing to ensure that their products will meet the Integrator's list requirements when submitted for testing. While most test requirements can be performed with the PC edition tool, a subset of tests specific to PCIe products are only available on the Teledyne-LeCroy tool, which require low level traffic generation capability.

IPv6 Testing and Certification
-
Our IPv6 testing services prove interoperability and functionality for IPv6 networks. Our testing includes coverage for IPv6 Host and Router, CE Router, IPv6 Applications and Network Protection Products. We offer ISO/IEC 17025 accredited testing for both the USGv6 and IPv6 Ready Logo test programs. In addition, customers may license our custom test tool IOL INTACT® for pretesting and internal validation.

Certification Programs
-
With the intention of creating confidence among customers and facilitating interoperability across multi-vendor networks, the UNH-IOL has partnered with several industry forums to create certification programs. Testing plays a large part in these certification programs, and the use of independent third-party test houses, like us, is key to their success. We do not certify devices, rather we supply unbiased information these certification programs need to accurately certify devices
