Key Benefits

UNI-T MSO8000HD-CTS100 Comprehensive Test Coverage

IEEE 802.3 100BASE-TX compliance testing encompasses dozens of individual measurements covering transmitter characteristics, signal quality parameters, timing specifications, and receiver performance criteria. Manual execution of these tests requires extensive setup time, precise measurement techniques, and detailed documentation—a process that can consume days of engineering time per device under test.

The MSO8000HD-CTS100 option automates the entire compliance test suite, automatically configuring the oscilloscope for each measurement, executing standardized test procedures, and generating comprehensive reports with pass/fail determinations and detailed margin analysis. This automation ensures consistent test execution while freeing engineers to focus on design optimization rather than repetitive measurement tasks.

Complete Validation Solution

Pair this Compliance Test option with the MSO8000HD-BND Protocol Analysis & Jitter Suite for end-to-end interface validation. The Compliance Test option provides automated standards conformance testing, while the bundle delivers protocol decoding and detailed signal integrity analysis.

This combination creates a comprehensive validation platform that can both verify protocol operation and certify standards compliance for interfaces. Both feature perpetual licensing with zero recurring fees, potentially saving $10,000+ over the instrument's lifetime compared to competitors' subscription models.

UNI-T MSO8000HD-CTS100 Professional Test Documentation

Compliance testing generates extensive documentation requirements for regulatory submissions, customer qualifications, and internal design validation processes. Traditional manual testing approaches often result in inconsistent documentation formats, missing measurements, or inadequate margin analysis that can delay product launches or certification processes.

The CTS100 option automatically generates professional-quality test reports that include comprehensive measurement results, statistical analysis, waveform captures, and detailed pass/fail assessments with margin calculations. These reports meet industry standards for compliance documentation while providing the detailed technical analysis needed for design optimization and troubleshooting.
