M8020A / M8030A Modules
The M8020A/M8030A modules are recognized by the model number and
name located on their front panel.
Each BERT module can be configured for 8 Gb/s or 16 Gb/s operation, as
generator-only or as full BERT. Some upgraded features/components of a
module are licensed and are only available when you purchase a license
for that option. The M8062A module supports 32 Gb/s and the M8195A as
a BERT module can support higher speeds than 16 Gb/s. The M8195A
cannot be used as a full BERT. It has no analyzer.
The following sections describe each of the M8020A/M8030A instrument
modules in detail.
