Product description
The OM4000 Coherent Lightwave Signal Analyzer is a 1550 nm (C- and
L-band)
fi ber-optic test system for visualization and measurement of complex
modulated signals, offering a complete solution to test both coherent and
direct-detected transmission systems. The OM4000 consists of a polarization- and
phase-diverse receiver and analysis software, enabling simultaneous measurement
of modulation formats important to advanced
fi ber communications, including
polarization-multiplexed (PM-) QPSK.
The OM4000 User Interface (OUI) software performs all calibration and
processing functions to enable real-time burst-mode constellation diagram display,
eye-diagram display, Poincaré sphere, and bit-error detection.
A remote interlock for the laser, located on the rear of the unit, allows for remote
locking of laser output.
You can use the OM4000 instrument along with a Tektronix OM2012 and
OM2210, as well as supported real-time and equivalent-time oscilloscopes, for a
complete optical calibration and testing system.
Key features Coherent lightwave signal analyzer architecture is compatible with both
real-time and equivalent-time oscilloscopes
Complete coherent signal analysis system for polarization-multiplexed
QPSK, offset QPSK, QAM, differential BPSK/QPSK, and other advanced
modulation formats
Displays constellation diagrams, phase eye diagrams, Q-factor, Q-plot,
spectral plots, Poincaré sphere, signal vs. time, laser phase characteristics,
BER, with additional plots and analyses available through the MATLAB
interface
Measures polarization mode dispersion (PMD) of arbitrary order with most
polarization multiplexed signals
