Avnu Alliance has developed a new certification program that will enhance the testing and certification process for network switches used across market segments.
The new program supports certification for devices according to the IEEE SA’s 802.1.BA profile for Audio Video Bridging (AVB) as part of the IEEE Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), which is a group of IEEE 802.1 standards. With this certification, network product manufacturers in various industries can ensure that their devices comply with the core AVB/TSN standards that provide improved synchronization, low latency, and reliability for switched Ethernet networks.
