Keysight Launches Automated Transmitter Compliance Test Solution for New UALink 1.0 Standard

SANTA ROSA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 9, 2025--

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) announced the launch of the UALink 1.0 (Ultra Accelerator Link) transmitter test solution, a dedicated compliance test tool for UALink devices. The new test application enables high-speed validation within advanced computing and AI interconnect systems, automating critical electrical measurements to ensure signal integrity and standard conformance at 200 Gb/s link speeds.

UALink 1.0 technology was introduced in 2024 by the UALink Consortium; it is an open standard designed to meet the growing demands of data centers where bandwidth, scalability, and reliability are critical. As AI, cloud services, and smart devices become more widespread, traditional technologies that connect computers, like PCIe ® and Ethernet, are struggling to keep up with the demands of these fast-growing systems. The UALink 1.0 standard represents an advancement in interconnect technology for AI data center infrastructure, enabling the fast deployment of scale-up and scale-out silicon for AI communications.

Keysight’s UALink 1.0 test solution streamlines transmitter compliance testing by introducing automated procedures. Tasks that typically take hours of manual work can now be completed in minutes with a Keysight UXR Real-Time Oscilloscope and the new UALink 1.0 transmitter application.

The Keysight Transmitter Compliance Test Solution for UALink 1.0 technology sets a new standard in data center interconnect testing, empowering engineers to receive automated test compliance results faster and provides the following benefits:

Dr. Joachim Peerlings, Vice President of Network and Data Center Solutions at Keysight Technologies, said: “The introduction of UALink marks a transformative leap in AI infrastructure and directly addresses the lack of an open, industry-standard, high-bandwidth low-latency interconnect for scaling AI accelerators within data centers. By providing tools for validating UALink transmitters, Keysight is helping the industry accelerate the introduction of products based on the open UALink standard.”

Keysight will demonstrate the UALink compliance test solution for the first time at the 2025 OCP Global Summit, October 13-16 in San Jose, Calif., booth # C1.

At the Summit, Keysight will also unveil an electrical 212 G receiver conformance test application ( M8091DJCA ). The 212 G receiver conformance application supports cable and backplane interfaces, which are foundational technologies of the UALink 200 Gb/s 1.0 standard and a key enabler for AI scale-up networking. The solution combines a Keysight M8050A 120 Gbd High-Performance BERT, a Keysight Infiniium UXR Real-Time Oscilloscope, and the M8091DJCA compliance application to deliver automated testing, advanced measurement coverage, and streamlined calibration for conformance and debug.

LONDON (AP) — The U.K.’s chief rabbi said Sunday that British Jews are facing “a sustained campaign of violence and intimidation” after attempted arson at a London synagogue, the latest in a string of similar attacks.

The incident that caused minor damage to Kenton United Synagogue on Saturday night follows a series of blazes at Jewish-linked premises and an Iranian opposition outlet that are being investigated by counterterror police.

Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis said on X that “a sustained campaign of violence and intimidation against the Jewish community of the UK is gathering momentum.

“Thank God, no lives have been lost, but we cannot, and must not, wait for that to change before we understand just how dangerous this moment is for all of our society,” he added.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he was “appalled” by the attacks, and pledged that "those responsible will be found and brought to justice.”

London’s Metropolitan Police force said it has sent extra uniformed and plainclothes officers to northwest London after attacks in the past month on synagogues, Jewish charity ambulances and a Persian-language media organization critical of Iran’s government.

The Kenton synagogue arson came a day after an attempt to ignite bottles of fluid outside the former offices of a Jewish charity on Friday night.

No one has been injured in any of the incidents. Several people, ranging in age from teens to people in their 40s, have been arrested and charged.

Police said they have not formally linked the incidents, but Counter Terrorism Policing London is leading the investigations because of “similar circumstances and online claims of responsibility.”

Online posts have claimed responsibility in the name of Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia. Israel’s government has described the group, whose name means the Islamic Movement of the Companions of the Right, as a recently founded group with suspected links to “an Iranian proxy” that has also claimed responsibility for synagogue attacks in Belgium and the Netherlands.

The group also posted a video claiming Israel’s London embassy was going to be attacked with drones carrying dangerous substances. Police said the embassy was not attacked, but the force shut the nearby Kensington Gardens park on Friday as officers examined discarded items including two jars containing powder. Police said nothing harmful was found.

The U.K. has accused Iran of using criminal proxies to conduct attacks on European soil targeting opposition media outlets and the Jewish community. Britain’s MI5 domestic intelligence service says that more than 20 “potentially lethal” Iran-backed plots were disrupted in the year to October.

Some security experts say Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia is likely a flag of convenience rather than a coherent group, and its claims should be treated with caution.
