Rent RequestThe Agilent Technologies N4906B Serial BERT is a professional bit error ratio tester for high-speed digital communication components and systems. This unit is equipped with Option 012, the 12.5 Gb/s configuration, providing a 9.5 Gb/s to 12.5 Gb/s pattern generator and error detector in a single integrated instrument. Keysight Technologies
It is particularly well suited for approximately 10 Gb/s communication applications, including optical transceivers, SONET/SDH systems, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, high-speed optical links, telecom manufacturing, and high-speed serial device verification. Agilent's own BERT application literature specifically identifies the N4906B Option 012 as a manufacturing-test solution for optical transceivers including SONET, SDH, 10GbE, and XFP applications. used-line.com
The instrument combines a programmable high-speed pattern generator with an error detector. The pattern generator supplies the test sequence to a device under test, while the error detector compares the received sequence with the expected data to determine bit error ratio.
Keysight specifies input sensitivity below 50 mVpp, fast bit synchronization for burst patterns, and an integrated Windows-based color touchscreen interface. LAN, USB, and GPIB interfaces support automated manufacturing and laboratory test environments.
