Agilent Adds SONET Electrical Data Jitter Measurement Capability

3/26/2003 - Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) introduced SONET electrical data jitter measurement capability for its JS-1000 performance jitter measurement solution, a complete, ready-to-operate test system for R&D and design verification applications. The new capability is available for OC-192 standard and FEC rates, or for a combined OC-48 and OC-192 rate solution.

The Agilent JS-1000 features the lowest intrinsic jitter of any product in the same class on the market. The solution's diagnostic information allows users to focus design improvements and characterize devices within the 2.4 to 3.1 Gb/s and 9 to 13 Gb/s ranges.

The modular system offers wideband clock recovery capability for OC-192, and combines wideband clock recovery capability for both the OC-48 and OC-192 rates to measure jitter on electrical data.

The Agilent JS-1000 performance jitter solution offers several benefits, including the following:

  • the lowest intrinsic jitter available, typically < 70 uUIrms at 10 Gb/s
  • the ability to test a wide range of data rates ( 2.4 to 3.1 Gb/s and 9 to 13 Gb/s)
  • device characterization data that goes beyond compliance measurements to provide information that differentiates random and data dependent jitter and focuses design improvement efforts
  • incremental addition of electrical data jitter measurements, maximizing return-on-investment

U.S. Pricing and Availability
The Agilent JS-1000 performance jitter solution is available now with a starting price of $250,000. Additional information is available at www.agilent.com/find/jittertest.
