The newly released Keysight N7718C optical reference transmitter addresses the industry’s challenges of validating 200Gbps per lane optical interfaces. Seamless integration with M8050A BERT platform enables the generation of optical PAM4 signal at up to 120 GBaud with unmatched signal integrity.
Combined with the Keysight N4917DJCA automation software and optical sampling oscilloscope, it builds up the industry’s first turn-key solution for automated optical receiver stress test, providing repeatable calibration of the optical stressed eye and saving hours compared to calibrating manually according to the upcoming IEEE 802.3dj.
To push the boundaries even beyond 120 GBaud, the N7718C optical reference transmitter can be used with the Keysight industry’s fastest arbitrary waveform generator M8199B.
