Enabling PAM4 448G Testing Today
The new M8159A Frequency Domain Interleaver Unit (FDIU) transforms the M8199B Arbitrary Waveform Generator into a next-generation 448 Gbps test platform, solving urgent challenges and opening high-value opportunities.
What’s New with the M8159A FDIU
This isn’t just another hardware add-on—it’s the enabler that extends the M8199B platform into next-gen bandwidths. It lets you:
- Extend usable bandwidth to 120 GHz
- Go beyond 224 GBaud PAM4 and 240 GBaud 16QAM
- Validate 448 Gbps signals using PAM4, PAM6, and PAM8
- Combine with amplifiers, DCA-X and/or UXR scopes for full-path signal validation
Why?
Solves a Timely Problem
High-speed R&D teams (1.6T, 3.2T, 1600ZR) are hitting the ceiling at 224 Gbps. The M8159A gives them a clear path forward to 448 Gbps validation.
Future-Proof
Many of you are only testing 224 Gbps today. The M8159A puts you on a roadmap to 1.6T, 3.2T, and beyond, making this a long-term investment in R&D efficiency.
