4 ABOUT US Since 2006, MultiLane has been offering high speed test and measurement equipment for data communications. As the industry has evolved from 10 Gigabit Ethernet to 400G Ethernet, we have kept pace with full circle support of data center interconnect test solutions encompassing IC and transceiver characterization, host line card testing, and link testing. We provide a range of form factors and architectures, from portable instruments, to stand-alone bench top instruments to automated test platforms. We also assist our customer base with compliance test services. We serve developers, module vendors, network installers, and data center operators with high-performance, reliable equipment that won t bust the budget. Currently, MultiLane has leading edge test solutions for the latest data center technologies such as 400G Ethernet with 100 Gbps data running on a single wavelength (100G per lambda). We also have a comprehensive set of development solutions for QSFP-DD. As any engineer knows, if you can t test a system, you can't make it. That means equipment vendors need test solutions in place at the moment they begin developing components for a given data rate. As a result, our focus has always been to have solutions ready when the market needs them. We develop our products and solutions in close collaboration with tier-one equipment vendors. In the data center market, communications isn t the only thing that needs to happen quickly. Companies need to get products to market as rapidly as possible to maximize market share. With a combination of proprietary technology and deep domain expertise, MultiLane is agile enough to quickly respond to customer needs. The MultiLane portfolio encompasses optical and electrical oscilloscopes, bit error rate testers, TDR cable testers, interconnect products, as well as fully automated transceiver test solutions, and compliance test services for 100G and 400G technologies. Developers, manufacturers, and installers of these new technologies all need the wide portfolio of solutions to be able to do their jobs successfully. We understand the breadth of solutions required for physical-layer test at these speeds. We also understand the economic realities of this business sector. We work constantly to take the pinch out of test and measurement purchases, and enable our customers to pass the savings on to their customers. MultiLane Inc. sales@multilaneinc.com 3

5 INSTRUMENTS BERTs Communications testing often starts with a bit error rate tester (BERT). These instruments generate a digital test pattern¾typically a pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS)¾that is used to drive a device under test (DUT) which could be an optical module plugged into the faceplate of the instrument. After transmission through the link, the signal is captured by the receiver in the BERT. The setup can be used to evaluate performance of a transmitter, receiver, or an optical link. MultiLane supports general purpose BERTs that connect through fixtures and coax cables, or BERTs that have a MSA compliant standard interface such as QSFP or OSFP. A BERT needs to be tailored to the characteristics of the device under test. Key parameters include: Baud rate Number of channels Modulation format (e.g. NRZ, PAM-4, etc.) Port type (e.g. QSFP-DD) Form factor (e.g. portable, chassis, etc.) Test pattern (e.g. pseudorandom binary sequence) Coming soon Coming soon Part number Max Baud Rate (GBd) Channels PRBS Data Format ML4039E 56 4 up to PRBS31, PAM4, PRBS13Q, NRZ SSPRQ ML x8 NRZ: PRBS 7, 9, PAM4, OSFP 15, 23, 31 NRZ PAM4: PRBS 7, 9, 11, 15, 23, 31 New product ML4039D up to PRBS31, PRBS13Q, SSPRQ PAM4, NRZ New product ML up to PRBS31(Q) PAM4, NRZ Amplitude Max Other mvpp diff. 800 Stand alone 600 or 1500 Stand alone Margin tester, stand alone, OSFP format 800 Manufacturing, stand alone, CFP8 format (adapters for QSFP-DD and OSFP available upon request) (continued on next page) MultiLane Inc. sales@multilaneinc.com 4

7 OSCILLOSCOPES Digital sampling oscilloscopes are essential tools for evaluating the performance of transmitters through jitter and eye-diagram analysis. In some cases, they are used in conjunction with a BERT, which generates the digital test pattern and the oscilloscope captures the signal after it has run through the device under test for signal quality analysis. It s important to plan for scalability when specifying a scope. As the data communications market evolves, your test requirements will evolve with it. You can be certain that your MultiLane test equipment will be a lasting investment¾make sure that you choose a model that will support your future product development. For instance 40 GHz of optical bandwidth of the ML4015D supports the leading edge 100G Lambda optical technology with GBaud PAM4 signaling.

8 TDAs (BERT + SCOPE) Especially for product development, regular lab usage and customer support, a good general purpose highspeed test instrument can be extremely useful. To serve this niche, we have developed Time Domain Analyzers (TDAs). Our TDAs combine a source, a BERT, an error analyzer, and a high-speed sampling oscilloscope in a single product that costs a fraction of the price of competing entries.

9 INTERCONNECTS As requirements for faceplate density and data rate have risen, form factors and multi-source agreements designed to serve those needs have proliferated. To test and qualify systems and modules, equipment vendors need interconnects, adapters, analyzers, and cabling to set up their test systems. These essential tools need to be compliant with the relevant standard. As part of MultiLane's commitment to supporting the evolution of the data center, we provide a complete selection of these interconnects products for a wide variety of standards. For example MultiLane supports Host Compliance Boards, Compliance Boards, Loopback s, and Analyzers for I2C CMIS and state machine testing.

16 SOLUTIONS & SERVICES Testing is an essential part of product development, qualification, and manufacturing. To streamline this crucial step, MultiLane has developed a portfolio of test solutions and services designed to ease the pain of tests. Take advantage of our automated test platform, consider our prepackaged test suites, or leave the qualification process to us with our compliance testing services. At MultiLane, we provide full circle testing support for all of your development, characterization & validation, and manufacturing needs. AUTOMATED TRANSCEIVER TESTING 100G CWDM4 has arrived at the data center. Testing transmitters and receivers just became four times more time-consuming and four times more complex. To streamline the process and minimize human error, we have developed our automated platform for testing transmitters and receivers. Our ML7007 software orchestrates the process. Used in conjunction with our MLO4034 optical switch box, the software can fully characterize a device with no human intervention. The technician connects the switch box to an oscilloscope and the appropriate BERT. At a press of the start button, the platform runs the tests and generates a detailed printout of results. The solution uses either the ML4070 BERT margin tester or the ML4054 BERT optimized for manufacturing environments. Possible options are: Application Manufacturing Return merchandise authorization (RMA) testing Characterization & validation Failure analysis Required software option ML7007-MAN ML7007-RMA ML7007-VAL ML7007-FA DAC CABLE TESTING Our ML4025-TDR time domain reflectometer is purpose built for testing of direct attach cables. It includes an integrated calibration routine and a GUI designed for easy operation. Use the instrument to characterize return loss and insertion loss. View the results, compare them to standards, and print test reports. MultiLane Inc. sales@multilaneinc.com 15

17 COMPLIANCE TEST It s not enough to develop a component. You need to be able to confirm performance and demonstrate interoperability. We offer two different approaches to compliance testing, depending on your needs. Compliance Test Suite For organizations who want to perform testing, we offer the Compliance Test Suite, designed to test hosts and modules for OIF_CEI_03.1 and IEEE_CAUI-4 compliance. The solution supports output tests and stressed input tests. An output test requires an oscilloscope, a reference clock, and a DUT. The user makes the hardware connections, chooses the standard of interest, configures the DSO, then chooses the appropriate measurements. A stressed input test requires a BERT, an oscilloscope, an MCB, and an HCB. For both tests, the system generates a report showing performance relative to the standard chosen. Compliance Test Services Qualifying parts can be time-consuming and challenging, at the time when lean staffing rules the day. Your focus should be on developing and manufacturing products to serve your customers. Leave the compliance testing to us. MultiLane offers 100G Optical and Electrical compliance testing services for system vendors, system integrators, module vendors and switch vendors. Since November 2015 we have been helping transceiver vendors optimize their products to pass standard specifications. Examples of standards supported are 100GBase-LR4, PSM4, CWDM4, and CAUI G and 100G Lambda Compliance test services are also available upon request. MultiLane Inc. sales@multilaneinc.com 16
