Functions and Advantages

Burst Mode

Burst Mode supports 24.8832/25.78125 GBaud PAM4 testing.

Burst Mode
Dual Package Testing

Dual Package Testing

Each data packet has different attenuation, there is a phase jump between different data packets, and there are long connections of “1” and “0” in the data packets,
Need to simulate the generation of the worst 2 ONU signals;

Built-in Clock Recovery, Supports for Long Fiber Testing

The built-in clock recovery allows rBT3250 to operate in a real long fiber working environment, which is basically impossible to achieve in other commonly used solutions in the industry, because those systems do not support clock recovery and cannot adapt to the impact of long fibers on latency and jitter.

[1] Take care of output amplitude from DUT as the high voltage signal may damage the receiver
[2] If the input is below the sensitivity threshold, high bit errors or LOS may occur
