The ML4015E is a combination optical and electrical sampling oscilloscope, which can be configured with an optical bandwidth of either 25 or 40 GHz at wavelengths ranging from 1260 to 1650 nm single mode or 700 to 870 nm multimode, or with a 32 GHz differential electrical sampler. The ML4015E also comes equipped with MultiLane’s latest Cygnus GUI, streamlining setup and configuration without compromising performance. The Cygnus GUI is the culmination of direct feedback between MultiLane and our partners and incorporates our most oft-requested features including saving multiple user setups.
Currently the Data Center Interconnect market is rapidly transitioning to 100G per channel for both optical, as well electrical interfaces, with the introduction of 800G Ethernet. Cost-effective characterization tools are required to enable this technology transition and to accelerate the deployment of 800G Data Center Interconnects, such as optical transceivers.
The characterization of Ethernet transceivers introduces a myriad of test and measurement challenges.
For instance, precise validation of 53.125 GBaud PAM4 optical transmitters requires prohibitively expensive instrumentation setups for production applications. MultiLane introduces the ML4015E Optical and Electrical Sampling Oscilloscopes as a well-correlated alternative to incumbent solutions at a high-value price point.
The ML4015E is a fully featured, cost effective single channel sampling oscilloscope. It can be
configured to have an optical bandwidth of either 25 or 40 GHz. The supported wavelengths range from 1260 to 1650 nm single mode or 700 to 870 nm multimode.
