MediaConverter 1000BASE-T1 H-MTD
Product Description
The MediaConverter 1000BASE-T1 H-MTD from Technica Engineering is a smart tool used in automotive product development to test electronic control units (ECUs). It creates the link between an onboard vehicle device based on 100/1000BASE-T1 and the network interface card (NIC) of a computer belonging to the testing and development set-up. Thus, it transmits data frames directly from the physical layer 100/1000BASE-T1 and the physical layer 100 BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T, with a deterministic and constant delay of approximately 2 microseconds.
No packets are stored or modified. Technica Engineering’s new generation of MediaConverters adapts to market trends and provides the user with innovative, practical solutions. Thus, via the system connector, 3.3 V signals are made available to force slave mode and force link down, as well as to monitor the current link status. These features are one-of-a-kind for this kind of device and are very practical for use-cases, such as End-of-Line (EoL), Automated Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL), and DV and PV applications) and multipurpose testing under tough environments. 100/1000BASE-T1 MediaConverter H-MTD provides a seamless Standard Ethernet to Automotive Ethernet conversion, through the combination of RJ-45 and H-MTD connectors.
This Fast and Gigabit Media Converter is an adequate solution to work quickly and efficiently in the testing of vehicle technology systems, through the 100/1000BASE-T1 technologies, which are in high demand by the main OEMs and Tier 1s of the field.
By using the Marvell 88Q2112 A2 transceiver, we ensure a trustworthy and effective tool for our customers that are looking for a cost-efficient, quick and manageable solution for their testing requirements of devices equipped with 1000BASE-T1 Phys.
This functionality is complemented by MediaConverter‘s DIP switches, which allow the configuration of modes in an effortless manner, making the product an easy-to-use tool. The modes of master or slave, 100 or 1000Mbit/s, and frame generation can be straightforwardly managed by these switches. Further, via DIP switch the Marvell 88Q2112 A2 Phy can be used in “IEEE” or in “Legacy” mode (For a technical description, please check the User Manual).
The 100/1000BASE-T1 MediaConverter is the ideal smart, easy-to-use solution for working efficiently with Automotive Ethernet, and it fulfills the increasing need for testing validation solutions for state-of-the-art communication technologies in the next generations of vehicle systems.
