Tektronix OM5110 Datasheet

46 GBaud Multi-Format Optical Transmitter
OM5110 Datasheet
The OM5110 Multi-Format Optical Transmitter is a C-and L-Band
transmitter capable of providing the most common coherent optical
modulation formats such as PM-QPSK and PM-16QAM up to 46 GBaud.
When combined with a signal source, such as the Tektronix AWG70001A
Arbitrary Waveform Generator or the Tektronix PPG3204 32 Gb/s
Programmable Pattern Generator, the OM5110 offers a complete coherent
optical test signal generation system.
Features and benefits
Multi-format optical transmitter supports modulation of formats such as
BPSK, PM-QPSK, and PM-16QAM
Excellent linearity supports modulation of multi-level signals
Modulates single or dual-polarization signals
Built-in C or L-band lasers for setup convenience
Supports external laser sources
Supports manual and automatic bias control of amplifiers and
modulator
Remotely control all setup and operations over Ethernet
Applications
Testing coherent optical receivers
Golden reference coherent optical transmitter
Transmitter for multi-carrier superchannel systems
100G / 400G / 1Tb/s Coherent Optical Test
System
The OM5110 Multi-Format Optical Transmitter is a C-and L-Band
transmitter capable of modulating the most common coherent optical
modulation formats such as PM-QPSK and PM-16QAM up to 46 GBaud.
When combined with a signal source, such as the Tektronix AWG70001A
Arbitrary Waveform Generator or the Tektronix PPG3204 32 Gb/s
Programmable Pattern Generator, the OM5110 offers a complete coherent
optical test signal generation system.
For coherent optical transmitter or transceiver manufacturers, the OM5110
may be used as a golden reference against which to compare module
designs. The OM4106D optical modulation analyzer can be used to
measure the performance of a transmitter under development and then
compared against the OM5110 reference transmitter. The flexibility to
automatically or manually set all amplifier and modulator bias points
provides the user the freedom to simulate less-than-ideal performance of
their own device.
Coherent optical receiver manufacturers can also use the OM5110 as the
ideal transmitter with which to test their receiver's performance and prove
functionality under best-case conditions. Then, using an instrument such as
the AWG70001A Arbitrary Waveform Generator, optical impairments can
be added to the signal to test the receiver under a wide range of real-world
scenarios.
