Keysight Unveils 224G IEEE 802.3dj Test Solutions for 1.6T AI Networks
Keysight Technologies introduced 224G test solutions—N1095DJCA optical conformance and N1091DJPA electrical validation software—compliant with IEEE 802.3dj for 1.6T interconnect R&D and manufacturing. The portfolio, including DCA-M sampling oscilloscopes, targets accelerated AI data center interconnect validation by reducing test complexity and time-to-market.
1. Product Launch
Keysight Technologies expanded its end-to-end portfolio with new 224G test solutions designed for next-generation electrical and optical interconnects. The launch includes the N1095DJCA optical transmitter conformance software and N1091DJPA electrical validation application, both aligned with IEEE 802.3dj standards to support 1.6T data center interconnect development.
2. Technical Features
The N1095DJCA application delivers high-sensitivity TDECQ and TDECQ-CER measurements on the DCA-M platform to streamline optical transmitter validation. The N1091DJPA electrical test software uses half-rate clocking on DCA-X oscilloscopes for rapid debug in early silicon and ASIC validation, while the N1096 multimode DCA-M oscilloscope handles PAM4 measurements up to 224 Gbps.
3. Market Impact
These solutions address critical signal integrity and compliance challenges as AI workloads drive data center networks to 224G lanes and 1.6T modules. By automating workflows and generating comprehensive reports, Keysight aims to shorten design risk cycles and accelerate time-to-market, positioning itself as a key partner in high-volume AI interconnect manufacturing.
