[pdf] Many different forms of optical modulation and multiplexing have been employed in coherent optical modules. Some coherent optical modules can fall back to older, simpler modulation techniques such as (NRZ) and/or with 4 levels (PAM-4) when appropriate. This is used, for example, when it is discovered that the module on the other end of the link does not support coherent.
[pdf] Unstressed receiver sensitivity testing is performed by simply connecting the transmitter to the receiver via a variable optical attenuator. BER values are recorded against different receiver power values and are finally plotted against each other. In optical communication systems, sensitivity is a measure of how weak an input signal can get before the bit-error ratio (BER) exceeds some specified number. The standards body governing the application sets this specified BER.
