Oscilloscope market makers announced that launched the first in the
industry for four-channel SFP interfaces (QSFP +) compatible product
consistency test and debug the solution.New QSFP + solution based on
the liner the DPO/DSA/MSO70000 oscilloscope, including to design, test
and verify the QSFP + design requires all the components, HCB fixture
and the test automation and software debugging tools.
QSFP + is a compact for data communication applications can heat
change the transceiver.It will network equipment main board (such as
switches, routers, media converter and similar devices of the
motherboard) through the interface connected to the cable.SFF
committee released the latest specification of the data transmission
rate reaches 4 x10gb/s and support serial connection SCSI, 40 g
Ethernet, Infiniband 20 g / 40 g and other communication
standards.Compared with the 10GBASE SFP+ Transceiver, QSFP +
module port density increased by 3-4 times.”
QSFP + evolve and sfp transceiver module, this means that
engineers need comprehensive testing solutions to efficient and rapid
verify its design and put them to the market”, the company general
manager of high-performance oscilloscope Brian Reich said, “our
solutions to provide automatic conformance testing function, compared
with manual test time can help customers to save as much as 80%, at
the same time provide to our world-class seamless migration of
debugging environment.”
Unlike the other based on a sampling oscilloscope sfp plus
transceiver test solutions, the new Tektronix SFP + QSFP + Tx
solution is based on real-time oscilloscope, which is engaged in the
preferred platform for QSFP + and SFF-8431 and SFF-8635 product design
engineers. SFP + QSFP + Tx solution also provides support for
Transmitter Waveform Distortion Penalty for Copper (TWDPc) test (SFF-
8431 standard requirements for this test), which is currently
unique.
SFP + QSFP + Tx solution using a simple menu driven measurement
Settings and provide one-click conformance testing, and automatic
report generation “pass/fail”, help to improve the efficiency of test
and measurement.In addition to the standard consistency requirements,
this solution also support the design verification, and configuration
of the test, such as window and other parameters of flexible
control.If the design of the conformance test failure, the user can
use DPOJET (jitter) and timing analysis Settings file to reduce
debugging time.
