Optical / 20 GHz Electrical Module

The Agilent 86101A provides the ideal measurement system for testing signals operating at 1063 or 1250 Mb/s as well as other high-speed telecommunications signals. The calibrated, integrated optical receiver, with over 2.8 GHz bandwidth, allows for easy, precise measurements of single-mode or multimode optical signals. An average power meter is built-in. For compliance testing, a hardware filter for both 1063 Mb/s or 1250 Mb/s testing can automatically be switched in to create a calibrated Fibre Channel or Gigabit Ethernet reference receiver. The switchable filter minimizes setup time while maximizing measurement repeatability. 155 and 622 Mb/s filters are also available.2.8 GHz optical channel for 62.5/125 fibersWavelength range: 750-860 nmCharacteristic rms noise: 1.5 uW (3 GHz)Reference receiver capability (155/622 Mb/s or 1.063/1.250 Gb/s)20 GHz electrical channel with 3.5 mm male inputCharacteristic rms noise: 0.25 mV (12.4 GHz BW), 0.5 mV (20 GHz BW)
