Accelerate your AI infrastructure assessment process with Keysight's next-generation VNA solution.

The market for AOC, DAC, and AEC cables is projected to reach $2.8 billion by 2028 with a growth rate of over 20% CAGR. This confirms that connectivity infrastructure is developing at a rapid pace, even faster than the simple chip processing process.

1. Opportunities arising from the explosion of connectivity in the AI era

AI is completely overshadowing traditional (non-AI) applications. Older Ethernet standards are being replaced by AI-specific protocols with stringent requirements for extremely high bandwidth and extremely low latency.

With the pressure of mass-producing optical cables and modules daily, maintaining absolute quality is a difficult challenge. The VNA Keysight machine is the "key" to inspecting thousands of cables with high accuracy, completely eliminating bottlenecks in AI supercomputer networks.

AI is a fertile ground but also presents significant technical challenges in terms of measurement and testing. The explosion in demand for AI connectivity is not just about market size; it's directly changing how we design and build hardware infrastructure. To meet this enormous bandwidth demand, engineers are simultaneously implementing two core scaling strategies: Scale-up and Scale-out.

2. AI Infrastructure Strategy: Scale-up & Scale-out

Scale-up (Internal Server Connection): Connects GPUs/XPUs at extremely close distances (NVLink/PCIe).

VNA machines optimize hardware design, including controlling crosstalk on the PCB and ensuring power integrity to prevent voltage drops during heavy data processing.

Scale-out (Wide Area Network Connection): Links thousands of servers via optical networks (Ethernet/InfiniBand).

The VNA system will ensure the continuous accuracy of the network by: assessing the quality of the fiber optic cable (AOC) and transceiver modules, ensuring Signal Integrity with no bit errors at speeds of 800G/1.6T.

3. Solving the AI Infrastructure Strategy Problem with the Keysight VNA Ecosystem

Streamline Series VNA is considered a mobile lab for ultra-fast AI infrastructure.

- Its ultra-compact USB design (only 2kg) offers flexibility for both on-site and in-data center testing.

- It boasts powerful performance with an extended frequency range up to 53 GHz or 330 GHz (mmWave).

Do you know? Keysight VNA is an indispensable platform for realizing ultra-fast connectivity systems currently running ChatGPT or Grok.

4. Utilizing VNA Keysight to accelerate research and evaluation of AI applications

- Signal Integrity (SI): Simultaneous time-domain (TDR) and frequency-domain measurements on a single device, reducing setup time by 50%.

- PCB & Material Optimization: Accurately determine dielectric constant (Dk/Df) accuracy in the mmWave range to reduce the number of trial fabrications.

- Power Supply Integrity (PI): Address voltage drop and EMI issues on GPU boards by measuring PDN impedance.

- Multi-port connectivity system: Configure VNA with up to 12 ports to simultaneously measure multiple signal pairs in AI Tray Switches.

What Is Resonant Frequency? Why Can a Single Frequency Range Damage the Entire Product?

A device may operate stably for months, yet suffer cracks, broken solder joints, or snapped component leads after being transported. What surprises many engineers is that the vibration amplitude during transport is no greater than usual. The root cause lies in a specific frequency range where the product's structure absorbs energy most intensely, triggering resonance and causing continuous stress concentration at a single point.

Should Carton Packaging Undergo Vibration Testing or Drop Testing First?

Một kiện hàng gần như không bao giờ bị rơi ngay khi vừa rời khỏi nhà máy. Quãng đường hàng trăm kilomet trên xe tải, container hay băng chuyền mới là giai đoạn diễn ra đầu tiên, nơi bao bì liên tục chịu rung lắc trong nhiều giờ. Chỉ sau đó mới đến những cú va chạm khi bốc xếp, giao nhận hoặc rơi ngoài ý muốn.

Distinguishing Between DFT and WFT in Coating Thickness Measurement

Many projects encounter a situation where a freshly applied coating looks perfectly uniform and paint consumption matches the estimate, yet additional coating is required during inspection because the thickness is insufficient. This leads many to suspect measurement errors or equipment inaccuracy, whereas the actual cause is a confusion between WFT (Wet Film Thickness) and DFT (Dry Film Thickness)

Can a car paint thickness gauge detect if a vehicle has been in a collision?

Many used car buyers often spend a considerable amount of time examining the paintwork, the gaps between body panels, or the overall condition of the exterior. However, these signs can be skillfully masked following repairs; precise color matching and careful polishing can make the vehicle appear almost factory-original.
