Interoperability validation for new 100Gb Ethernet based devices is critical for establishing specification conformance, consumer confidence, and adoption into current enterprise applications. Ensuring these new devices also work in conjunction with legacy products and in existing data center infrastructures is even more important.

This webinar will review the observations and preliminary results of the May 2023 Ethernet Alliance Interop PlugFest, held at the UNH-IOL. This recent plugfest focused testing resources on verifying the 100GbE solutions from a broad segment of the Ethernet ecosystem. We’ll also preview the proposed testing matrix for the next PlugFest.
