 Support for external API calls from other software e.g. LabView.
 Repeatable performance and Traceable to standards.
 High port density configuration and Low power consumption.
 ML4016 has a Pre-Emphasis option.
 ML4016-02 requires a rate clock input from an ultra-low jitter Synthesizer.
 Eye contour.
 Bathtub.
 Continuous.
 Pre-Emphasis control.
 Auto Search.
The ML4016 is a state of the art low cost 4
Lanes 16Gbps BERT module that is fully features for production testing of AOC and electrooptical modules. The instrument is offered in 2 different flavors (with/out Pre-Emphasis)
ML4016 / ML4016-02 . Both plug into the
ML4000 Multilane 6U cPCI Chassis.
User programmable PRBS pattern can be changed via easy to use GUI.
The ML4016-02 requires a rate clock input from an ultra-low jitter Synthesizer.
 Multi-Lane BERT testing, ideal for high port count volume production testing.
 40G QSFP line cards, 10G SFP+ line cards.
 16/8/4/2G Fiber Channel applications.
 InfiniBand, USB, SAS/SATA, 10GbE, 40GbE,
100GbE, Ethernet, PON, Parallel Optics, etc*.
10Gbase-KR/40GBase-KR4/CR4/SR4, 100GBASE-
CR10/SR10.
 Electro-optical Transceiver Testing.
 Active Optical Cable (AOC), Direct Attach
Cable (DAC), SFP+, zQSFP, QSFP+, CFP/2, CXP, 5x
7 long hauls interconnect, and QDR test applications.
 Design/ Validation Test (DVT) of Telecom /
Datacom, Components and Systems.
 High-Speed SerDes Testing &
Characterization.
 Telecoms Equipment Test for Installation and
Maintenance.
 Scripted Testing – Automated test scripts allows for continuous testing for deep BER depth.
 Automated measurement libraries for bathtub curve, J2/J9 measurements
 Comprehensive Results – Intelligent reporting capabilities for analysis and documentation of deep statistical tests.
 ML4016: 15 W.
 ML4016-02: 25W.

Yearly calibration required.
