Bit Error Tester

BERT 1001/1005 Series Bit Error Tester

The MATRIQ BERT 1001/1005 series instruments are dual-channel or four-channel PPGs and error detectors for the development, characterization, and production of optical transceivers and optoelectrical components at data rates of up to 30 Gb/s.

Thanks to their high scalability and exceptional signal fidelity, they provide a cost-effective test solution for 400 Gbit/s communication systems.

Features:

• Programmable PPG Tx deemphasis and continuous-time linear equalizer (CTLE) processor to compensate for connection losses in coaxial cables
• Built-in clock recovery: Simultaneous four-channel measurement in an integrated CDR; no additional clock recovery hardware required
• Internal clock synthesizer
• Graphical user interface for easy, intuitive control of all channels via PC and mobile devices.

BERT 1100 Series

The BERT 1100 series comprises 4- or 8-channel pulse pattern generators and error detectors for development, characterization and manufacturing of optical transceivers and other optoelectronic components. These scalable bit error detectors support optical and electronic systems with bandwidths up to 400 Gb/s.

Features

• Programmable 7-tap PPG Tx De-Emphasis and CTLE (Continuous-Time Linear Equalizer) to compensate for link losses in coaxial cables.
• All optical and electrical tests on a single platform
• Independent clock and data recovery (CDR) for each channel
• Time-saving and easy-to-use GUI user interface for all channels and functions
• PPG with integrated clock synthesizer
• Up to 8 channels per module. Two slots with up to 64 synchronized 29-GBaud channels
