Anritsu has introduced the G0361A, a 64Gbaud two-bit digital to analogue converter (DAC) with dual-channel 2x1 multiplexers.
When connected to the MP1800A signal quality analyser, it creates what the company claims is the industry’s first test set-up that supports signal generation and bit error rate (BER) tests for high baud rate signals, such as 128G PAM4 (four-level pulse amplitude modulation).
Test and measurement specialist Anritsu has introduced a CPRI-based RF measurement option for its BTS Master handheld base station analyser family that can significantly reduce the operational expense (opex) associated with troubleshooting interference at fibre-based cell sites.
Anritsu has launched new MP1861A mux and MP1862A demux modules for the MP1800A signal quality analyser. This will expand the functions of the MP1800A 32G bit error rate tester (BERT) to support 56G and 64G measurements required for evaluating high-speed serial transmission devices, such as SerDes.

Mike Jones looks at the 5G lottery and asks: 'Are you gambling with your fibre’s performance?'
The European Electronic Communications Code has been finalised and formerly adopted. How will it aid European fibre deployment, and what factors could impact the end goal of copper switch-off? Keely Portway finds out
Artificial Intelligence is a hot topic right now, with the potential to help improve efficiency both across the network, and from a cost perspective.
