Tektronix schedules virtual optical test week
Summary
“Our customers are facing new daily challenges in having to support new emerging technologies”, says Dean Miles, EMEA Tektronix Technical Marketing Manager. “Increased demand for bandwidth and network capacity is forcing the industry to adopt to direct detect transceivers with higher baud rates, PAM4 modulation and multiple lanes. The keynote and technology presentations will include these topics The event will also feature the latest optical innovations from Tektronix, such as: • Thenew 8 Series Sampling Oscilloscope Platform with support for 56GBd and 28GBd. The disaggregated modular instrument series boasting parallel acquisition, with up to four channels per mainframe and the highest measurement accuracy for PAM4 optical signals on multiple inputs simultaneously. The communication between the PC running TSOVu and the TSO820 mainframe is based on an IEEE 802.3TM Ethernet network, such as 100BASE-T or 1000BASE-T. TSOVus Programmatic Interface (PI) commands can be used in the automation environments to control instrument functionality and analysis reporting.
