Applications and ResearchKeysight Technologies and Nokia Bell Labs have successfully tested a 260 GBaud ultra-high-speed optical signal transmission over 100 km of standard single-mode fibre (SSMF) at ECOC 2022, exceeding the previous record of 220 GBaud. With the mutual goal of improving network performance and efficiency, Nokia Bell Labs and Keysight combined expertise with other research partners […]
Product FocusData centers need 400GE speed and faster memory to support 5G applications. DDR5 promises data rates up to 6.0 GT/s, effectively doubling the data rate of DDR4. DDR5 reduces footprint and improves power efficiency, but these improvements introduce new design and test challenges for chip designers and device manufacturers. Keysight’s white paper, DDR5 – Full Speed […]
