Gold-standard coherent optical receiver for the measurement of coherent modulation formats such as QPSK, 64QAM and OFDM.
High-performance, lownoise coherent receiver IQRX is designed and built using the highest-performing discrete fiber optic components to provide superior fidelity measurement of coherently modulated signals. To minimize noise, IQRX does not use a transimpedance amplifier (TIA), a component often found in commercially available ICRs.
Four single-ended outputs Designed to be used with any real-time oscilloscopes with sufficient bandwidth and sampling rate, the single-ended outputs make it convenient to pair with the four input channels of most oscilloscopes.
Dual polarization measurement IQRX houses polarization selective hardware to characterize polarization multiplexed signals. LO input, signal output and internal laser outputs all use polarization maintaining (PM) fiber for the highest versatility.
