Anritsu’s latest BERTWave series optical device measurement system combines BER measurements and eye pattern analysis in one package.

For remote measurement in production environments, the MP2100A has a built-in mixed remote command function for batch-processing multiple measurement commands to speed-up measurement and cut BER measurement times by about 30%.

It supports high-speed sampling, shortening the time required for eye pattern analysis, including mask tests.

Optical signal power is measured by analysing the extinction ratio eye pattern.

There is also a Bessel filter and calibration function required for measuring extinction ratio, supporting extinction ratio measurements as close as possible to the theoretical value.
