Automotive Ethernet Tests

Connectivity, big data and autonomous driving require the ability to transmit large amounts of data in in-vehicle communication networks.

Automotive Ethernet offers the possibility to adapt a well-known and proven technology of the consumer electronics sector for the automotive industry. Ethernet offers high bandwidth and flexibility at low cost. In addition to the connection of high-resolution image sensors and radars, Ethernet is used as a backbone connection between high-performance computers within the vehicle.

Easy CON 1000Base-T1 — Automotive Ethernet Media Converter

Easy CON is a cost-effective automotive Ethernet media converter (1000BASE-T1 to 1000BASE-T or 100BASE-T1 to 100BASE-TX and vice versa). Due to its low sensitivity to interference, the Easy CON can be used not only at development workstations, but also in particularly harsh environments such as production facilities or the shop floor.

In addition to simple media conversion, the tool can also be operated as a USB Ethernet adapter (automotive Ethernet). Easy CON automatically determines all connection parameters (e.g. data rate, master-slave mode).
