  • Specification

The Bessel-Thomson Reference Filter 622 Mb/s (TA122) is part of a range of BT filters designed to provide accurate characterization for signals emerging from optical transmission systems. This filter is particularly useful for telecom systems operating at the 622 Mb/s bit rate, such as OC12/STM4. The filter helps in maintaining signal integrity by ensuring the oscilloscope displays accurate measurements, allowing engineers to effectively analyze telecom signals.

By placing the BT filter between the O/E converter output and the oscilloscope input, it removes distortion caused by unequalized signal transmission, providing a clearer, more accurate view of the original signal. This is critical for applications in telecommunications, data communication, and optical networking.

  • Accurate Signal Representation: Ensures that the signal displayed by oscilloscopes accurately reflects what an equalized optical receiver would detect.

  • Compatible with Various PicoScopes: Works seamlessly with PicoScope 9221A, 9231A, and 9321 models to ensure precise measurements.

  • Easy Selection: Choose the correct BT filter based on the bit rate and associated serial data or communication standard, using the provided reference table.

  • Essential for Telecom Systems: Ideal for characterizing signals from telecom systems operating at 622 Mb/s.

  • Model: TA122

  • Bit Rate: 622 Mb/s (OC12/STM4)

  • Compatibility: PicoScope 9221A, 9231A, and 9321
