The ONT family has established itself as the reference for module development and validation. This pedigree continues with our ONT-800 family covering both QSFP-DD and CFP2 pluggable digital coherent optics (DCO). Developing and validation of DCO has many new challenges and having a stable test and development environment is key to reliable product validation and […]

One of the questions we get asked now and then is on the connector life in our ONT products. Pluggable optical modules can be plugged in and out of our test sets, both as part of their test and validation but also in normal applications engineers will plug in and out different optical interfaces in […]

With the emergence of 400G Ethernet we have seen the wide deployment of higher order modulation in client interfaces. We have moved from the mature NRZ of 100G and below to PAM-4 modulation both optically and electrically. This has allowed 400G links to be deployed for reaches of 10km. But what about applications like data […]
