Prepare for the new challenges in optical networking. During this webinar, experts will address critical design issues posed by integrating optical PAM4 capabilities into optical networking components or system utilizing the capabilities of a real time oscilloscope.
Until recently, both optical and electrical bandwidth produced similar results but this is no longer the case with the recent IEEE spec change. This paper clarifies these terms, mathematically shows how they are related, and pr
ovides the basis to understand and confidently calculate optical and electrical bandwidth for an optical channel.
