Keysight to Showcase Advanced AI Data Center and High-Speed Interconnect Validation at DesignCon 2026

SANTA ROSA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS):

What: Keysight will showcase end-to-end solutions enabling AI system design, interoperability validation, and large-scale performance at DesignCon 2026. From advanced packaging and chiplets to PCIe®, memory, and USB4 validation, the demos demonstrate how to overcome physical limits, ensure compliance, and de-risk designs early. The journey culminates with 1.6T interconnect benchmarking and validation of emerging AI fabrics, giving customers confidence their designs will perform at system scale while accelerating time to deployment.

When: February 24-26, 2026

Where: Keysight Booth (number 1039)

Santa Clara Convention Center

Media: Contact Andrea Mueller to schedule media briefings and solution demonstrations

Info: Keysight will participate in 16 paper, panel, and tutorial presentations, as well as nine talks, via the Keysight Educational Forum on Feb. 25 in the Great America K Ballroom.

Demonstrations include:

• Chiplet 3D Interconnect Designer: Demonstrates a chiplet and 3D IC design workflow that accelerates multi-die interconnect development for AI and high-performance devices.
• Signal Integrity at 3.2T Speeds: The demo pairs the Physical Layer Test System (PLTS2026) with the NA5307A Frequency Extender (250 GHz) and supporting tools to show the bandwidth and accuracy needed for next-generation infrastructure validation, helping accelerate time-to-market.
• Next Generation Memory Validation: Highlights measurement solutions for AI workloads through memory demos, including a live DDR5 system for mainstream electrical validation and a GDDR7 PAM3 signal integrity setup utilizing the new SNDR and jitter measurement suite to streamline compliance and debug.
• Reliable PCIe^® PAM4 Performance: Showcases Keysight’s next-generation PCIe test solutions for PCIe 7.0, spanning both electrical (PHY) and protocol-layer validation. The demo highlights how the UXR-Series oscilloscope, M8050A BERT platform, and PCIe test software accelerate debug, improve margin analysis, and enhance link reliability.
• 448 Gbps Pathfinding: This solution advances signal integrity research by leveraging the M8199B arbitrary waveform generator and the N1046A electrical channel module to generate and analyze PAM4, PAM6, and PAM8 signals. Together, they enable researchers to evaluate signaling trade-offs and optimize modulation strategies for next-generation interconnect architectures.
• 1.6T Interconnects for AI Networks: Demonstrates how the Keysight INPT-1600GE benchtop test system helps engineers ensure performance and reliability by validating BER and FEC, measuring link quality, and benchmarking AI workloads
• UALink and Scale-Up Ethernet for AI Infrastructure: Highlights Keysight’s automation, validation, and compliance solutions for 1.6T-class electrical networking interfaces, enabling automated test workflows, expanded measurement coverage, and streamlined calibration for conformance and debug.
