KD will bring its latest innovations to AutoSens Europe

2025-09-18

KD will be in Barcelona from October 7 to 9 to present its latest technology at AutoSens Europe. The event, which will take place at the the Palau de Congressos in Barcelona, will feature more than 60 expert speakers, over 50 booths, engaging panels, technical case studies, and exploration of 12 key topics, with cutting-edge demos from sensor and computer vision leaders.

Juan Luis Matus (CSM), Pablo Blázquez (BDM), Luis Medina (FAE) and Mario Campos (Software & Firmware Engineer) will be there to show attendees our latest innovations. The demo that will be available for visitors who come to our booth on these days include the first 802.3cz Camera, LI-VENUS-ISX031-BASE-AU from Leopard Imaging, which is based on our 10GBASE-AU KD7251 optical transceiver, which uses CSI-2 over optical Ethernet and communicates data with a link of up to 40 meters. The camera includes a hybrid cable and connector system designed and development by Corning Incorporated.

The KD7251 is the first transceiver that is compliant with the IEEE Std 802.3cz standard specification for multigigabit glass optical fiber (GOF) automotive Ethernet. It implements the nGBASE-AU physical layers in a single-chip solution, supporting 10, 5, 2.5 Gb/s. In addition, it includes bridging functionalities to enable the connectivity of sensors, displays, and processors in the vehicle.

The KD7251 is qualified for automotive standards at AEC-Q100 grade-2 environment. As native automotive part, it supports MACsec, ASIL-B FuSa, TSN, Wake-up & Sleep, OAM, and dependability functions. Thus, the transceiver enables a broad range of use cases with optical technology, such as multigigabit Ethernet backbone, zonal gateway connectivity, smart antenna link, and connectivity for radars, cameras, lidar, displays, and high-performance computing units.

We look forward to seeing you at booth 349 to show you the next level of automotive connectivity!
