Agilent / HP / Keysight 71612C
71612C Error Performance Analyzer
Description
This Error Performance Analyzer is the ideal solution for the research, development and manufacturing test of Gbit lightwave and digital components, devices and subsystems from 100Mb/s to 12.5Gb/s.
With this high performance serial pattern generator and error detector, you can perform error analysis to verify the operation and quality of lightwave submarine cable systems, SONET/SDH telecom and datacom transceivers, Gbit datacom serial links, high speed logic devices, and optical amplifiers and modulators.
It can be used to test 10.6Gbit Ethernet and forward error correction (FEC) rates giving you a breadth of applications to help you thoroughly test and characterize your devices for complete confidence in your product.
The four sub rate outputs of this unit are suitable for the generation of 3.125Gb/s test patterns required to test the XAUI interface of 10Gigabit Ethernet devices.
Key Points
Generate exceptional waveforms even with reflective or poor terminations
Dedicate the analyzer's whole display for pattern editing
Simulate long distance testing using burst-mode gating in re-circulating loop tests
Quickly locate the optimum decision point in the eye waveform with auto-decision thresholds and phase alignment
Identify individual errored bits in custom patterns using error location analysis (ELA)
Display any bit in a custom pattern using the flexible pattern trigger
