Serial Bit Error Rate Tester

Luceos 10G Bit Error Rate Tester is a high speed, low cost modular plug and play BERT equipment, giving the option to configure the device according to customers needs e.g. XFP sensitivity measurements and allow for later upgrade without wasting previous investments.

Multi Channel Bit Error Rate Tester

A way of increasing the bandwidth through any media type can be achieved by parallel data streams. In optical communications both implementations of multiplexing same wavelengths in parallel cables or parallel wavelengths in the same media channel are used.

Applications like Active optical Cable (AOC), QSFP or 40GbE/100GbE require to test several channels simultaneously. Crosstalk is an important parameter to investigate. So is sensitivity.

The X-BERT is a modular system. Multiple BER Tester modules can be used per setup. The concept allows for basically any channel count within the ParallexTM system for e.g. 4 Channel QSFP BER Test.

Overall BER and individual channel BER can be tested. By default the phase correlation is random. Adjustment of the phase can optionally be done by use of Luceo's Phase Shifter. Parallex GUI is able to combine up to 24 BERT to a whole system.
