Receiver Clock Recovery and Multi-data Rate Support Simplify Testing of High-performance Optical Transmitters, Laser Diodes, Optical Components and Fiber Loops
The OI2125 O/E Receiver receives modulated optical signals up to 12.5 Gb/s from transmission systems, including SONET/SDH compatible systems, and converts them to electrical signals for further testing by equipment such as a bit error rate tester (BERT). The OI2125 electrical output can be connected directly to most commercial error analyzers, and does not require an external amplifier. The data and clock output voltage ranges (0.5 to 1.5 Vp-p) make the OI2125 an excellent optical interface for most commercial error analyzers.
With the optional OM1420 module, the receiver can extract the clock on signals up to 10.664 Gb/s (OC-192 FEC). The recovered clock signal can then be used to trigger a CSA8000 sampling oscilloscope or serve as the clock input to an error analyzer. Used with the Tektronix TDS/CSA8000 series sampling oscilloscope and a pattern generator, the OI1125 can create modulated optical signals for high-speed optical communications testing, extinction ratio measurements, eye-pattern analysis and optical signal analysis. The optical signal is passed through the DUT and received by the appropriate 80Cxx sampling head on the oscilloscope.
