ETCPBench™
Benchmark Software

The Industry's First Standard TCP/IP Performance and Conformance Test

TCP was first introduced in 1974 and is very standardized, so why the need to test it now?
There was no prior standard for measuring TCP/IP performance (similar to MPG in cars or PPM in printers - standards only apply under certain assumptions).

ETCPBench Provides Testing from Low-End Microcontrollers to High-End Processors for Data Center Equipment

  • Most any platform ranging from development boards to complete system

EEMBC's First System-Level Test Automates Network/Protocol Validation with IxANVL and IxLoad

  • Fully Supported in Collaboration with Ixia
  • Traffic Generation Provided by IxLoad
  • Performance measured using IxLoad TCL interface
  • Supports all industry-standard test interfaces from 10/100/1000 to 40G

The EEMBC Technology Center (ETC) offering:

  • Independent benchmark testing services including full system configuration and setup
  • Certification to verify full compliance to standardized run rules
  • Utilizes Ixia's iSimCity as a base for ETCP test validation operations

ETCPBench is available for EEMBC's members and licensees:

  • Certification available at iSimCity for EEMBC's members
  • This suite can also be licensed from Ixia by members and non-members to prepare for certification
  • ETC offers official certifications for prices starting at $6000 for platforms supporting 1-48 ports of 1 GbE

 

EEMBC Collaboration with IXIA

"Our new benchmark suite is applicable for a wide variety of platforms ranging from microcontrollers with integrated Ethernet support to high-end processors for data center equipment. To accommodate this range of platforms, EEMBC offers multiple real-world performance and compliance scenarios targeted for particular market segments." Muhammad Raghib Hussain, Cavium's CTO & corporate vice president of software and EEMBC's chair of the Networking working group.
