Anritsu Company and Mindspeed Technologies to Showcase 10G-EPON Technology at OFC
March 23 2010 - 3:00PM
Business Wire
Anritsu Company (Booth #3140) and Mindspeed Technologies, Inc.
(NASDAQ: MSPD) (Booth #2648) announce that Anritsu’s MP1800 Signal
Quality Analyzer (SQA) will serve as the hub of a 10G-EPON test
system that will highlight the performance of Mindspeed®’s optical
chipsets. Mindspeed plans to use Anritsu’s 10G-EPON system to
perform burst traffic transmit and receive data eyes, as well as
bit-error-rate (BER) and dynamic range tests to validate the
performance of the chipsets and underline certain 10 Gbps
technology being developed by Mindspeed.
Mindspeed will demonstrate its 10G-EPON Optical Network Unit
(ONU) chipset, including the M02170 low-power direct-modulated
laser (DML) driver and M02142 multi-data rate post-amplifier, in a
10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable (XFP) reference design and
the M02172 low-power 10 Gbps Electroabsorption Modulated Laser
(EML) driver for Optical Line Terminal (OLT). To verify the design,
the MP1800 is configured with one LVTTL level converter to conduct
the burst mode control, and a unit with a pulse pattern generator
(PPG) and Error Detectors (ED) for dual ONU to OLT burst mode Rx
dynamic testing.
“Anritsu has a tradition of working with companies for the
purpose of advancing technologies. Our demonstration at OFC with
Mindspeed Technologies continues that practice. Our MP1800 is a
unique test solution that can conduct the measurements necessary to
validate the performance of the innovative products being designed
by Mindspeed Technologies,” said Hiroshi Goto, Optical Product
Specialist, Anritsu Company.
For OLT/ONU evaluation, the MP1800 SQA has a flexible gating
function that allows the analyzer to conduct parallel BER testing.
The MP1800 can support four synchronized 14G BERTs or two 28G
BERTs, which can be upgradable to a serial 56G BERT. The MP1800 SQA
delivers the highest quality waveforms that include the lowest
intrinsic jitter. Complicated searching for input thresholds or
phase adjustments is simplified with the touch of a single key. It
is ideal for research and development of 100 GE, optical
modulators, high-speed logic, integrated circuits (ICs), digital
systems and PON.
“Mindspeed designs solutions that enable high-performance
optical communications in support of today’s enterprise, mobile,
broadband access, metropolitan, and wide area networks. Our ability
to deliver leading-edge 10G-EPON products is greatly enhanced by
high-quality test solutions like Anritsu’s MP1800,” said Angus Lai,
senior product marketing manager, lightspeed connectivity solutions
at Mindspeed.
Mindspeed’s fiber optic portfolio spans the entire spectrum of
optical networking. It includes Physical Medium Dependent (PMD)
solutions from 100 Mbps to 12 Gbps speeds in support of Synchronous
Optical Network (SONET), Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH),
Passive Optical Network (PON) and Gigabit Ethernet/Fibre Channel
digital data transmission standards.
