The Keysight 71603B error performance analyzer (formerly Agilent Technologies) addresses applications for high speed digital testing up to 3 Gb/s, including R&D and manufacturing test of lightwave components and sub-assemblies, advanced computer technology and high-capacity communication systems.

For transmission systems up to 3 Gb/s, such as datacoms and CATV trunk feeds, the 71603B and 71603B Option 807 error performance analyzers (3 and 1.5 Gb/s) provide a range of PRBS and user-defined patterns with versatile triggering facilities. Keysight 71603B Error Performance Analyzer models were previously manufactured by Agilent Technologies.
