CORX-TESTER

Automation of the measurement of the key parameters of a coherent receiver.

Greater coverage of key test parameters within 2 minutes
Automatic one-click testing
Intuitive, dedicated software
Future-proof and scalable modular design
19-inch rack mount

CoRx-Tester consists of a pre-configured MTP1000, two LaserBlade channels, a PolBlade polarization controller and a VOABlade variable optical attenuator with a built-in power meter. Simply connect the two optical outputs to the ICR, connect the ICR to the oscilloscope and let the CoRx-Tester software do the rest.

The device works with the WaveMaster or LabMaster real-time oscilloscope series from TeledyneLeCroy, which offer the most powerful and highly integrated software packages for optical modulation analysis (OMA). The optional optical software package – LINQ OMA adds functional testing of optical signal measurement.

CoRx-Tester provides basic hardware performance characterization and does not require a modulated optical signal. It measures key OIF parameters such as S21 (frequency response), phase response, channel skew, channel gain imbalance and harmonic distortion.

Features:

Greater coverage of key test parameters within 2 minutes
Automatic one-click testing
Intuitive, dedicated software
Disassemble the test instrument
Future-proof and scalable modular design
Ethernet and USB connectivity
19-inch rack mount

Powerful software for intuitive control
The user-friendly CoRxTester software allows you to configure and run an automatic sequential test at the push of a button.

Thanks to various visualizations, you can display the measured hardware properties, which will give a comprehensive understanding of the device within minutes.

Full compatibility with the Optional Optical LinQ OMA Software

Save the results as a *.crs file, which can be imported into Optical Linq. This provides an easy, fast and reliable way to use the coherent receiver within the OMA system.

Efficient use of space

The MTP1000 platform lets you get as much bench space as possible by using up to 9 measurement blades (BLADE). Enabling a tower of instruments to be replaced by a single machine.
