The Keysight 81492A is a reference transmitter optical head that functions as a universal single-mode electro-optical converter for high-speed optical testing and measurement. It generates NRZ and PAM4 signals up to 56 Gbaud with excellent eye quality, supporting IEEE 802.3 compliance testing for 10, 40, 100, and 400GBASE standards. The module’s separated signal source and modulator architecture enables zero-chirp modulation, delivering repeatable and reproducible measurements that reduce production test margins and improve device specifications.
