Optical-Electrical Converter.
Available in MATRIQ and PXI platforms
O2E 1000 – 1400 Series
The O2E is a high‑bandwidth, broadband optical‑to‑electrical converter designed to accurately translate optical signals into electrical form for advanced test and measurement applications.
Housed in a compact benchtop form factor, it offers flexible configuration options including one or two channels, AC or DC coupling, and selectable conversion gain and operating wavelength ranges, making it well suited to optical communications R&D and device characterization.
Detailed optical and electrical specifications, available configurations, and operating limits are provided in the O2E product specification sheet.
Various wavelength ranges
The O2E can be customized to a wide range of wavelengths and is suitable for single mode and multimode applications.
High bandwidth
Our high performing O2E allows you to successfully test high baudrate signals with up to 50GHz of bandwidth.
Calibrated readings
Onboard storage of calibration data can be accessed via SCPI commands, making it easier to generate calibrated measurements and scale your measurement capabilities.
Amplified RF output
Various conversion gain options allow you to easily measure low power, high speed optical signals.
DC or AC coupled
Choose from DC or AC coupling to suit your specific test application.
Simple, intuitive operation with CohesionUI™
CohesionUI is an intuitive web-based user interface that makes it simple to control our instruments from modern web browsers or smartphones.
