Keysight / Agilent 81250 Overview

The Agilent ParBERT 13.5Gb/s modules are the ideal solution for testing high-speed communication ports, components, chips and modules for a wide range of technologies and applications for the semiconductor and communication industry.

The Agilent N4872A 13.5 Gb/s generator module and N4873A 13.5 Gb/s analyzer module is each one VXI slot wide and requires the E4809A Central Clock module. The ParBERT 13.5 Gb/s modules are able to generate and analyze differential or single-ended signals at data rates from 620 Mb/s to 13.5 Gb/s.

The ParBERT 13.5 Gb/s modules make the Agilent ParBERT 81250 ideal for addressing following applications:

• 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10.3 Gb/s and 9.953 Gb/s)
