The Agilent/Keysight 86106B is a high-performance optical and electrical sampling oscilloscope plug-in module designed for the 86100 series Infiniium Digital Communications Analyzer (DCA) mainframes. It features an integrated, calibrated optical channel with a built-in, switchable OC-192/STM-64 reference receiver filter for transmitter compliance testing, along with 28 GHz of unfiltered optical bandwidth. Additionally, it offers a high-bandwidth 40 GHz electrical channel with a 2.4 mm male input, making it an ideal solution for precise characterization of high-speed telecommunication and data communication waveforms.
