The TA124 Bessel-Thomson Reference Filter is a key tool for accurate telecom signal analysis. By connecting this filter between the output of the optical-to-electrical (O/E) converter and the oscilloscope input, it ensures that the displayed signal is a true representation of what an equalized optical receiver would see. This is particularly important for high-speed signals such as OC48/STM16 (2.488 Gb/s) and Infiniband 2.5G (2.5 Gb/s).
This filter helps reduce signal distortion, ensuring that oscilloscopes like the PicoScope 9221A, 9231A, and 9321 display precise measurements. Ideal for telecom systems, the TA124 filter is essential for engineers and researchers working with high-speed telecom and networking signals.
