Description
Overview
The Keysight N4951A is a compact pattern generator remote head designed for high-speed serial bit error rate testing. It supports data rates from 4 to 32 Gb/s in a single continuous band with no gaps or missing data rates, making it suitable for 100 Gigabit Ethernet and multi-channel high-data rate device testing. The remote head design enables placement very close to the device under test, eliminating the need for long cables that degrade signal quality.
Key Features
- Available in 4 to 17 Gb/s or 5 to 32 Gb/s configurations
- Full data rate pattern generation with continuous coverage
- Supports PRBS and user-definable test patterns
- Compatible with common telecom and datacom test patterns
- Remote head allows signal placement very close to device under test
Applications
- 100 Gigabit Ethernet testing at 25 Gb/s and 28 Gb/s (100GBase)
- InfiniBand EDR and FDR testing
- High-speed SerDes testing
- Fibre Channel testing (16GFC and 32G)
- Transceiver module testing (CFP, SFP, SFP+, XFP)
- Backplane CEI testing
