← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a fiber optic transceiver's clock recovery circuit experiences excessive jitter?
A)Increased bit error rate occurs✓
B)Lowered laser emission intensity
C)Reduced chromatic dispersion effects
D)Improved signal-to-noise performance
💡 Explanation
Increased bit error rate arises when jitter disrupts clock recovery because the phase-locked loop (PLL) fails to produce a stable clock signal for sampling incoming data. Therefore, errors increase, rather than the noise improving or dispersion being reduced which require alternative timing errors.
