N8814B 10GBASE-KR Backplane Ethernet Electrical Compliance Application Software

Загрузить техническое описание

The N8814A 10GBASE-KR Backplane Ethernet electrical performance validation and compliance software for Infiniium Series oscilloscopes gives you a fast and easy way to verify and debug your 10GBASE-KR and 40GBASE-KR4 Ethernet designs. The Ethernet electrical test software lets you automatically execute Ethernet physical-layer (PHY) electrical tests and displays the results in a flexible report format. In addition to the measurement data, the report provides a margin analysis that shows how closely your device passed or failed each test.

The 10GBASE-KR electrical performance validation and compliance software performs a wide range of electrical tests to meet the 10GBASE-KR electrical specifications as documented in the IEEE 802.3ap standard. The software requires at least one InfiniiMax active differential probe (N2802A or N2803A) with N2836A InfiniiMax III 26 GHz solder-in probe head. For the optional 40GBASE-KR4 Backplane Ethernet compliance testing, you will need the Keysight U3020A S26 or BitIfEye BIT2100 Switch Matrix hardware, which supports multi-channel digital signals.

The N8814A 10GBASE-KR Backplane Ethernet electrical performance validation and compliance software runs on all Infiniium 90000 X-Series and 90000 Q-Series oscilloscopes.

Standards supported:

• The N8814A 10GBASE-KR Backplane Ethernet electrical compliance application software provides rapid and automated testing of Backplane Ethernet network devices.
• The application automates compliance test coverage for tests in the Backplane Ethernet IEEE 802.3ap specification.
• A wide range of 10GBASE-KR Backplane Ethernet electrical tests are performed.
• Optional 40GBASE-KX4 Backplane Ethernet compliance is supported using the Keysight Switch Matrix.

Automation:

• Automated setup ensures result repeatability and lets test engineers run the application without being an expert on Backplane Ethernet testing procedures.
• Test setup wizard guides user through test selection, configuration, connection, execution and results reporting.
• Oscilloscope setup is automatically configured for each test, and measurement connection setups are displayed.
• Test results reports test configuration, measurements made, pass/fail status, margin analysis and waveforms.

Requirements:

• N2802A 25 GHz InfiniiMax III Series probe amplifier
• N2836A InfiniiMax III 26 GHz solder-in probe head
• When combined with 40GBase-KR4 Ethernet option: Keysight U3020A S26 or BitIfEye BIT2100 Switch Matrix

Extensibility:

• The application is available as a fixed license for a specifi c oscilloscope, or it can be ordered as a server-based floating license that can move between multiple oscilloscopes
• Use the user-defined application tool to: Create and fully integrate custom tests, configuration variables and connection instructions; Insert external application calls into the run sequence, such as MATLAB scripts or your device controller; Configure additional external instruments used in your test suite.
