Industry first standalone PCIe® 7.0 Protocol Exerciser, extends the Summit M616 Protocol Analyzer to deliver a complete validation and debug solution

MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Teledyne LeCroy, the worldwide leader in protocol test solutions, today announced the release of the Summit™ Z74 Protocol Exerciser for PCI Express® (PCIe®) 7.0 technology, designed to accelerate the development, validation, and debug of next-generation PCIe devices and systems. Summit Z74 operates as a standalone protocol exerciser for controlled traffic generation, or pairs with the Summit M616 Protocol Analyzer to create a complete PCIe 7.0 analysis and exerciser solution. Together, the platforms give engineering teams the control and visibility needed to expose interoperability issues earlier, shorten debug cycles, and reduce development risk.

Artificial intelligence, machine learning, high-performance computing (HPC), cloud infrastructure, and advanced storage applications are driving the demand for faster, lower-latency interconnects. To meet that demand, PCIe 7.0 specification doubles the raw data rate of PCIe 6.0 specification from 64.0 GT/s to 128.0 GT/s and delivers up to 512 GB/s of bi-directional bandwidth in a x16 configuration. At these speeds, Pulse Amplitude Modulation 4-level (PAM4) signaling, FLIT-based protocol, and increasingly complex system architectures require validation tools that can generate precise protocol traffic, emulate real-world workloads, reproduce problem conditions, and provide deterministic control over PCIe link behavior throughout the development lifecycle.

The Summit Z74 addresses these challenges with a flexible architecture for PCIe 7.0 technology development. Used independently, it enables engineers to generate controlled protocol traffic, exercise device behavior, and validate responses under targeted conditions. Paired with the Summit M616 Protocol Analyzer, the Summit Z74 becomes part of a comprehensive debug and validation system that combines traffic generation with deep protocol capture, decode, analysis, and debug. This solution enables engineering teams to efficiently isolate, resolve and verify link training behavior, transaction-level issues, protocol errors, LTSSM transitions, interoperability challenges, and compliance-development concerns within an industry-leading and customer familiar Summit workflow.

“The rapid evolution of PCI Express technology to the PCIe 7.0 specification is enabling new levels of performance for AI, storage, and high-performance computing applications,” said Al Yanes, PCI-SIG President and Chairperson. “Protocol test equipment accelerates validation and ecosystem readiness to help engineers address growing system complexity.”

“The Summit Z74 extends our long-standing commitment to the PCIe design and test community,” said Michael Romm, General Manager, Teledyne LeCroy Protocol Solutions Group. “Engineering teams can deploy the industry’s first standalone PCIe 7.0 protocol exerciser or pair it with the Summit M616 to create a complete, familiar environment for traffic generation, protocol visibility, validation, and debug. This flexibility helps customers protect their test investment while confidently advancing next-generation PCIe designs.”

Availability

The Summit Z74 and the Summit M616 are available to PCI Express technology development teams preparing for PCIe 7.0 specification validation programs. Please contact Teledyne LeCroy for additional product information, technical specifications, configuration guidance, and availability details.

SEATTLE and AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Zillow® and Realtor.com® today announced that Preview℠ is live on both sites, bringing pre-market homes to buyers across the two most-visited real estate platforms in the country. No special login or brokerage relationship required. The same early access for every buyer, on both platforms starting today.

This marks the realization of a collaboration announced in May, and the largest pre-market syndication effort in U.S. residential real estate. Whether searching on Zillow or Realtor.com®, buyers will now see pre-market listings at the same time — clearly labeled as Preview listings, with no insider track required.

“Today we set a new standard for pre-market transparency on Zillow and Realtor.com®,” said Christopher Roberts, Zillow’s chief product officer. “While others in this industry are moving in the other direction and restricting early listings to private networks, we’re proving that broad, public visibility is better for sellers, better for buyers and better for agents.”

“It takes a shared commitment to bring two platforms to the table, but on this, we agree: an open marketplace serves buyers and sellers better than a closed one,” said Anna Marie Castiglioni, Head of Realtor.com® Next. “Bringing Preview Listings to both platforms means every buyer, on either site, gets access to the same homes at the same time — and every seller gets the benefit of that broad reach.”

The collaboration launches as Zillow Preview has already achieved significant scale. More than 400 brokerage partners — including Keller Williams, RE/MAX, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, HomeServices of America, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, United Real Estate, Engel & Völkers and Side — are enrolled in Zillow Preview, with listing creation continuing to grow.

A more complete search on both platforms
Preview listings are clearly labeled and receive enhanced visibility in search results and email alerts on both Zillow and Realtor.com®.

Once a buyer finds a Zillow Preview or Realtor.com® Preview home, they can:

Save it to stay updated as more details become availableContact the listing agent to get questions answered quicklyPre-book a tour to be one of the first in the door when the home is ready for showingsUse the extra time to connect with a buyer’s agent and get pre-approved for a mortgage — so they’re ready to act the moment the home goes live

Nearly 9 in 10 Americans (88%) say they would be at least somewhat interested in viewing pre-listed homes online if they were buying, according to a Zillow survey conducted by the Harris Poll.

A bigger stage for sellers and their agents
For sellers, the collaboration delivers pre-market exposure at a scale that wasn’t previously possible. Zillow and Realtor.com® together reach three-quarters of major portal visitors, according to Comscore data. Preview listings receive 18% more views, 9% more shares and 7% more saves than comparable listings during the first 14 days on market.

While sellers prepare their homes for sale, agents can build demand across both platforms simultaneously, turning the time before listing day into a marketing runway. Real buyer behavior during the Preview window — views, saves, tour requests — gives sellers and their agents pricing intelligence before a home officially launches on the MLS. Eighty-five percent of soon-to-be sellers say they’d be more likely to hire an agent who can pre-market their home to the broadest online audience.

As part of this collaboration, agents will receive the same benefits for both their Zillow Preview and Realtor.com® Preview listings, available at no cost to sellers or agents participating through an enrolled brokerage.

Participating agents receive three key benefits:

Greater visibility: Preview listings receive elevated placement in search results and saved-home alerts during the Preview period on both Zillow and Realtor.com®, helping more buyers discover the home earlier in the listing process.Free connections based on buyer choice: Consumers have the choice to connect with the listing agent or with a local buyer’s agent, depending on their needs. When a buyer reaches out to the listing agent directly through Zillow or Realtor.com®, those connections are free for the listing agent.Revenue participation: If a qualified Preview connection from either a Zillow Preview or Realtor.com® Preview home results in a closed transaction through a qualified partner agent, the listing agent may receive a share of the revenue earned from that transaction, settled through their brokerage. This fee does not increase consumers’ or agents’ costs. As always, commissions remain negotiable between consumers and the agents representing them.
