Question: endpoint/switch evaluation board for TSN #895

Open JohnRama opened 4 years ago

JohnRama commented 4 years ago

Hello,

In order to learn how TSN protocols works with real hardware, I'm looking for the evaluation board which supports some of following protocols. The board needs to run with evaluation binary.

802.1AS, AS-REV – Time Synchronization
802.1Qbv – Scheduled Traffic (TAS)
802.1Qci – Ingress Policing
802.1CB – Seamless Redundancy
802.1Qcc – Stream Reservation Protocol
802.1Qbu / 802.3br – Preemption
802.1Qch – Cyclic queuing and forwarding
802.1Qca – Path Control and reservation

Question is that do you guys know if there is any evaluation board available for that purpose ? I'm interested in both endpoint and switch.

I keep searching such devices recently, and I thought "EVAL-RapID-TSNEK" from analog devices would be good, however actually it does support gptp and FQTSS only at this moment. https://ez.analog.com/industrial-ethernet/embedded-ethernet-switches/f/q-a/115370/fido5200-tsn-evaluation-kit-enquiries

I could not find out other devices, at this moment...

I'm wondering if asking this question here is suitable for this project or not, but at least sharing such a information would be helpful for AVB/TSN developer, and this contributes for the promotion of AVB/TSN standard.

So any information is highly appreciated !!

Kind Regrads, John

Hi John,

I work at System-on-Chip engineering (SoC-e) Company. Apart from being TSN technology provider (we do have our own Multiport TSN IP Core) we also provide different kind of TSN devices: End-Point PCIe board, TSN Switches and development boards.

Even though this might not seem like the best place to advertize this kind of products, it is true that most of the developers are located here and will find easier products to use for development & validation.

If anyone is interested, you can check our website (https://soc-e.com/) or contact us through info@soc-e.com
