Anritsu MP2100A BERTWave analyser

Click2Contact

The MP2100A BERTWave is a high-speed sampling oscilloscope, pulse pattern generator and detector, and a light source in a single unit for performing simultaneous BER measurements and eye pattern analysis of active optical devices.

Using the device is claimed to halve measurement times compared to conventional active optical device measurement systems.

Functions include: high-speed mask test - supports high-speed sampling, shortening the time required for eye pattern analysis, including mask tests; precision extinction ratio measurement - optical signal power is measured by analysing the extinction ratio eye pattern.

Other features include: built-in, precision Bessel filter and calibration function required for measuring extinction ratio, supporting extinction ratio measurements as close as possible to the theoretical value; clock recovery - CDR - eye/pulse pattern clock recovery option supports 8.5 to 12.5 GHz and 0.1 to 2.7 GHz and confirms optical output characteristics of transmission equipment without a trigger source.

The device is designed for use in transmission testing, research laboratories and manufacturing.
