Read the OPEN Alliance press release for detailed information. We were happy to see the great interest generated by this demonstration during the event and also to know that C&S Group helped to make it happen!
This fact reflects for sure a major milestone in the progress of the Automotive Ethernet field. Our employee Ricardo Sappia describes his impression:ĭuring the OPEN All Member F2F and the Ethernet & IP Automotive Technology Day held at Yokohama, Japan we had a great opportunity to show the first interoperable demonstration in a BroadR-Reach (100BASE-T1) ecosystem where different silicon vendors and cable assemblies coexisted with an interoperable behavior. At the 2015 OPEN all member meeting October 26 and the IEEE Ethernet & IP Automotive Tech Day, Booth #C3, October 27 – 28 in Yokohama, Japan physical layer transceivers (PHYs) of different vendors were shown working together in a single platform.At the IEEE Ethernet & IP Automotive Tech Day, October 27 – 28 in Yokohama, Japan, our employee Fabian Nikolaus gave a lecture about the standardization of tests for efficient testing of Automotive Ethernet ECUs.At the IEEE Ethernet & IP Automotive Tech Day, November 1-2, 2017 in San Jose, California, USA, our employee Fabian Nikolaus gave a lecture together with NXP about Guaranteeing Interoperability of Efficient and Flexible Wake ‐ up/Sleep in a 100BASE‐ T1 Environment .The standards as basic rules offer at the same time security as they emerge from a long analysis process under consideration of possible operating situations and also are the indispensable basis for the interoperability of participants in an Ethernet network. Such wide scale adoption is achieved mainly through the establishment of common developed standards with general rules and guidelines for the implementation of Ethernet networks in the automobile. The Open Alliance aims, amongst others, to achieve a wide acceptance of Ethernet networks. The impressive number of more than 200 members demonstrates the confidence that is now set in the use of Ethernet in the automotive sector. It shows, that such a use is possible at first it was the BroadR Reach technology of Broadcom that has considerably contributed to.įrom this common interest, the OPEN Alliance ( One- Pair Ether- Net) Special Interest Group (SIG) was established as a consortium of automobile manufacturers, technology vendors and other partners from the field of the automobile. Nevertheless, one wanted to utilize the advantages of Ethernet for application in the automotive sector: Speed and significantly lower costs convinced to check the possibility of using Ethernet now for automotive applications. A long time it was considered as impossible to operate Ethernet in the car over unshielded cables.
