Purpose

Developers can use the Excelfore platform to build automotive IP network applications related to AVB, TSN, SOME IP, DoIP and other protocols.  The software provides common use cases for effective evaluation and test of AVB-TSN based Endpoints.  Automotive Ethernet configurations:

  • 1 Gbps (1000BASE T-1)   - supported
  • 100Mbps (100BASE T-1)  - custom
  • 10Mbps (10BASE T-1s)    - custom

 

Benefits

  • Customer talker/listener products can be tested for monitoring the performance by connecting with the kit
  • Shorten time to development and deployment
