All-in-one Transport Tester
- With four 100 Gbps ports, the MT1100A supports R&D of the latest OTN 400 Gbps technologies using client signals, including Ethernet, CPRI/OBSAI, SDH/SONET, PDH/DSn, and Fibre Channel, now in development
Supports Up to 400 Gbps (100G x 4)
- The MT1100A supports a maximum of four 40 Gbps or 100 Gbps ports, each of which can be used independently and simultaneously for network and network-equipment tests. Selecting one of the available CFP, CFP2, CFP4 (using CFP2/CFP4 adapter), QSFP28 (using CFP2/QSFP28 adapter), CXP, and QSFP+ connectors for each port supports insertion of the appropriate module for all-in-one development and manufacturing of various 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps WDM, switches, and optical transceivers. Moreover, CAUI, XLAUI electrical signals can be input/output to/from the MT1100A, supporting development of high-speed optical modules using dedicated extenders.
OTN Flexible Mapping
