Optical transceiver modules are deployed along the data journey through the data center. They come with different optical and electrical interfaces, form factors, and speed classes. Today, 10GE, 40GE, and 100GE are deployed. However, data center operators are moving fast toward 400GE in the data center. Since 100GE and 400GE optical transceivers from different vendors will need to co-exist, interoperability is a must to ensure quick deployment and evolution of a data center infrastructure.

Keysight provides turn-key performance and compliance test solutions for optical transceiver modules. Our optical transceiver test solutions include specific equipment configurations, combined with solution software, enabling full automation of compliance testing and ensuring accuracy and repeatability of results. Keysight’s solutions support the recommendations defined in the following standards and multi-source agreements (MSAs):

100GBASE-ER4/-LR4/-SR4, 100G MSAs (CWDM4, CLR4, 4WDM), 200GBASE-DR4/-FR4/-LR4, 400GBASE-LR8/-FR8/-DR4, CAUI-10, CAUI-2, CAUI-4, 200GAUI-8/-4, 400GGAUI-8, CEI-56G-VSR-NRZ, CEI-VSR-PAM4, CEI-112G

Keysight’s solutions are designed to enable the same equipment to be used for multiple purposes, such as electrical and optical receiver test for 100GE and 400GE – thus protecting your investment. In addition, our compliance test software supports custom test definitions to characterize the performance of modules or transmitter/receiver optical sub-assemblies during the design and development phases.

    TDECQ Part 1: Making Accurate and Repeatable Compliance Measurements

    TDECQ Part 1: Making Accurate and Repeatable Compliance Measurements

    TDECQ is the acronym used to describe “transmitter dispersion and eye closure quaternary”. This is a power penalty metric that describes how much extra power is required from a transmitter, relative to an ideal transmitter, to compensate for both non-ideal transmitter waveforms and the impact of chromatic dispersion. It is similar to the transmitter dispersion penalty (TDP) metric used in NRZ optical communications standards. It was developed in the IEEE 802.3bs standard and improved in the IEEE 802.3cd standard. It is a convenient way to specify the performance of a PAM4 transmitter, as it aggregates many transmitter attributes into a single metric, and the metric directly indicates the impact a transmitter’s imperfections will have on overall system-level performance.
