Driven by such demands as high-definition on-demand Internet Protocol
television (IPTV), cloud computing and online gaming, the telecommunications
and data communications industries are rapidly migrating to faster data
rates with the emergence of 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s Ethernet communications
protocols. To realize this next migration up in performance, component,
module and systems manufacturers need highly accurate and versatile test
solutions that support all key optical and electrical standards.
The 80C10B module provides 80+ GHz optical bandwidth and signal fidelity
for detailed characterization of 40 Gb/s and beyond. With the Option F1,
users gain patented filtering technology for specific industry standards –
making the 80C10B F1 a single module test solution for all major optical
standards including; OC-768/STM256, VSR2000 (ITU-T G.693), 40GBase-LR
(future serial), OTU3, 4X10G LAN PHY, 100GBase-LR4, 100GBase-ER4,
100GBase-LR4 + FEC, and 100GBase-ER4 + FEC. The 80C10B and 80C10B F1 modules
represent the most cost- effective solution for design and compliance
verification of new and emerging high speed optical data communications, and
telecommunications standards from 40 Gb/s to 100Gb/s (4X25G) — all in a
single module.
“This is an exciting time in the optical communications industry as the
next generation of optical data rates make their way into next generation
product designs,” said Brian Reich, vice president, Performance
Oscilloscopes, Tektronix. “With the new 80C10B F1 and 80C25GBE optical
modules, we are giving engineers the advantages of reduced time per test,
accurate and repeatable measurements and the most cost-effective and
versatile solutions on the market.”
Validation and Compliance Test for 40GbE and 100GbE The 80C10B offers the
highest optical bandwidth available on the market in combination with
optical reference receivers (ORR) for 39.813 Gb/s OC-768/STM256, 41.25G
40GBase-LR, 43.018 Gb/s G.709 FEC (OTU3), and 4X10G LAN PHY standards. In
addition, the solution offers the industry’s only guaranteed ITU and IEEE
compliant filters in this performance arena. The 80C25GBE is focused on
supporting manufacturing of 100GBase-LR4, 100GBase-LR4 + FEC, 100GBase-ER4,
and 100GBase-ER4 + FEC where speed and accuracy are fundamental to
cost-effective compliance testing. In addition, the 80C25GBE provides 65GHz
optical bandwidth for accurate unfiltered signal characterization. Both the
80C10B and 80C25GBE deliver up to 4X acquisition throughput as compared to
alternatives.
Industry leading sensitivity, noise performance, impulse response, group
delay, and return loss provide the best signal fidelity to assure accurate
and repeatable characterization of SONET/SDH and high-speed designs of 40 to
100 Gb/s and beyond.
The Tektronix DSA8200 when combined with the 80C08C and 80C10B F1 modules
represents a versatile solution for existing optical ITU-T, IEEE and ANSI
FibreChannel standards at 10G, 40G and 100G. Tektronix now provides all
reference receiver filters for physical layer compliance testing of every
major optical data rate from 8.5 Gb/s through 44.5 Gb/s, including
40GBase-SR4, 40GBase-LR4 and 100GBase-SR10, simultaneously in a single test
system. Additional information can be found at
