Network tester runs up to 43Gbit/s
Module provides advanced Sonet/SDH and OTN test functions in a single module to address the demands of commissioning and troubleshooting 43Gbit/s networks.
With its three programmable input and output ports, the digital frequency locking system is a versatile instrument that uses advanced digital processing to control the frequency of a large variety of tunable devices with precision down to +/-50MHz.
This novel stand-alone instrument replaces an oscilloscope, two function generators, a lock-in amplifier, a feedback loop controller and a programmable signal-processing computer.
"Our digital frequency locking system is a must for transceiver card manufacturers and R and D labs who want to integrate tunable lasers into leading-edge optical subsystems", said Mario Larose, Vice-President of Marketing at EXFO.
"It provides them with tremendous benefits in terms of time to market, ease of use and footprint".
