The LeCroy OE695G is a high-performance optical-to-electrical converter that transforms optical signals across a broad wavelength range into electrical signals suitable for oscilloscope analysis. It delivers precise signal conversion with exceptional noise performance, enabling detailed examination of optical data streams from 622 Mb/s to 12.5 Gb/s. The OE695G integrates directly with Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes to provide advanced optical signal integrity analysis, reference receiver filtering for industry standards, and comprehensive troubleshooting capabilities for telecommunications, datacom, and optical measurement applications.
