Showcase of the PAM-4 56 Gbauds ModBox at the Anritsu booth iXblue is a pioneer in Optical Reference Transmitter solutions at 850 nm, 1310 nm and 1550 nm. The ModBox PAM-4 56 Gbauds, generating very high quality PAM4 and NRZ optical data streams up to 56 Gbaud/s in the O and C Bands, is designed to meet the high standards of engineers designing for the latest optical networking technologies to 400G.iXblue’ s ModBox, in combination with Anritsu MP1900A and MP21110A, will be featured at the Anritsu booth with live 56 Gb/s NRZ / 56 GBaud PAM4 data transmission and TDECQ analysis.

 

Cost Effective E/O VNA ModBox In December 2014, iXblue introduced the first Optical Vector Network Analyzers (OVNAs) ModBox to extend the Vectorial Network Analyzer capabilities into the optical domain.  Based on proprietary ultra-wide bandwidth modulators, the OVNA ModBox converts electrical signals @ 850nm up to 40 GHz or @ 1310nm and 1550nm up to 70 GHz.Starting September 2019, the ModBox VNAs are packaged in a smaller 2U rack and are available on our e-store for an ultra-competitive price!

Versatile PAM-4 ModBox for SRS tests Anritsu’s BERT and iXblue’s PAM-4 ModBox are combined for calibrated SRS (stressed receiver sensitivity) tests. The compliance test for 200GBASE-SR4 and 200GBASE-DR4 transceivers, requires Gaussian and Sinusoidal noise to be added. The noise can be generated by the Anritsu Noise Generator seeding the iXblue ModBox for transfer to the optical domain. Combining the Anritsu MP1900A BERT and MU195020A PPG with the MU195050A Noise Generator and iXblue Optical Reference Transmitters - ModBox-850nm-PAM4-28Gbaud or ModBox-OBand-PAM4-28Gbaud – generates the required stressed signals, for both single-mode (per 802.3bs) and multi-mode (per 802.3cd) wavelengths.

 

New 70 GHz O-band & C-Band Amplitude modulators iXblue Photonics recently improved the microwave electrode design of the intensity modulators in the O-Band or C-bands. This significantly increased the current modulation bandwidth up to 70 GHz.The new high bandwidth EOM already integrated into our products will be available for sale.

New Erbium and Erbium/Ytterbium co-doped fibers iXblue single clad Erbium and double clad Erbium/Ytterbium fibers are now available with tighter absorption tolerances, perfect for use in a high-volume fiber laser or amplifier production environment. With excellent uniformity and batch to batch consistency, operators are able to build CATV amplifiers or fiber-based-LIDAR faster, avoiding time-consuming adjustment of fiber length or other amplifier parameters. These new ranges include Polarization Maintaining (PM) and non-PM fibers; options as high temperature coating and reduced cladding size are available on demand.
