Agilent N4917A Optical Receiver Stress Test Solution Data Sheet Version 1.11 Repeatable optical receiver stress tests according to 10GbE IEEE 802.3ae and 10 GFC standards Targets 10 GbE - LR/- ER, 10 GFC One E/O reference transmitter for 1310 nm and 1550 nm, single mode One O/E reference receiver for 850 nm, 1260 nm, and 1640 nm, single mode and multi mode Data rates at standard’s target and up to 12.5 Gb/s in reference transmitter mode Automation and adjustments included in the software Conformance tests and characterization Adjustable ER, OMA, sinusoidal interference (SI), periodic jitter (PJ) Jitter tolerance and receiver sensitivity (BER vs OMA) result screens Repeatable results www.DataSheet4U.com Optical reference transmitter and receiver stress test solution Optical Receiver Stress Test The calibrated optical receiver stress test solution provides accurate signal stress for receiver tolerance and compliance testing. It is available for the popular standards of 10 Gb Ethernet IEEE 802.3ae for -LR and -ER, and for 10 G Fibre Channel. The parameters of ER, OMA, SI and PJ are calibrated and can be dialed so VECP and total jitter are be precisely set. Figure 1: Optical receiver stress test setup The stress signal is generated from the J-BERT N4903A with help of the N4917A-E01 Receiver Stress Conditioning Unit. The output of the N4917AE01 drives the 81490A Optical Reference Transmitter, which connects to the 81576A Optical Attenuator. The output of th...
