The 80C14 module is a broad wavelength (700 to 1650nm) multirate optical sampling module providing 8Gb/s, 10Gb/s, and 16Gb/s telecom and datacom testing. The supported 10Gb/s datacom applications include: 10GbE, 40GbE-R4, 100GbE-SR10 applications at 9.953, 10.3125, and 11.0957Gb/s. Fibre Channel applications include: 8.500, 10.51875, 11.317, and 14.025Gb/s. The 80C14 also provides telecom rate testing at 9.953, 10.664, 10.709, and 12.5Gb/s.
With its amplified O/E converter design, this module provides excellent signal-to-noise performance and high optical sensitivity, allowing users to examine low power level optical signals. The CR175A-HS and CR286A-HS (sold separately) are examples of instruments that can provide clock recovery for the 80C14.
