Infact, these 2 probes have me baffling the past 2 months and I have been diving deep into the world of isolated measurement, ADCs, Optical, transformer isolation etc.
Infact pure analog differential amplifiers if designed properly can achieve such high CMRR. A company called CICResearch
http://www.cic-research.com/ makes them already. If you look at their datasheets, u will notice they make HV Diff probes upto 30KV and their DP04 series has 120 MHz bandwidth and 8kV RMS voltage ratings. Of course this voltage rating doesn't mean shit if your probes CMRR degrades over frequency, which is a common problem with normal diff probes. However CICreasearch somehow tackles this problem and has a CMRR of -155dB @ 100 Hz and -110dB @ 10 MHz. So one can assume that at around 100MHz it has a very good CMRR although this info is not in datasheet.
http://www.cic-research.com/datasheets/DP04_Datasheet_06-B.pdf I dived down the rabbit hole of analog opamps world and found that basically one has to compensate for Common Mode impedance at higher frequencies, which is the main culprit for voltage derating, low CMRR etc. ( one can now understand that these are all the same). A differential amplifier with improved CMRR circuits is shown in this book
Analog Electronics with Op-amps Page 54,55. Further guard rings etc can be employed in PCB layout which can further improve CMRR.
However an isolated front-end/oscilloscope if designed properly with enough bandwidth can do the same the ISOVu does. I think the ISOVu is really overrated and may have other intentions. Anyone heard about Photonic Sampling in ADC's? Its just a theory until now. Probably they they somehow adapted this tech and use it get such a high bandwidth for the power electronics measurements industry which is now into SIC and GaN Mosfets with new challenges of its own. Infact Photonic sampling research is in 100s of GHz range. So if properly done, 1 GHz should be easier. Probably Tektronix wants to learn about photonic sampling with this probe and learn to develop even higher bandwidth probes.
What I really don't understand is the amount of data conversions taking place in this probe, even in the Lecroy HVFO one. Analog to (Digital probably) to Optical to (Digital probably) to Analog to Digital in Oscilloscope. Looks like a waste of scope hardware. If only they could eliminate oscilloscope front-ends all together and feed directly into the FPGA/ASIC.
Anyways on side notes, there is a kiwi company called Cleverscope. They have released their isolated usb oscilloscope CS448 with 4 isolated front ends upto 1kV and achieve a similay CMRR of 100dB @ 1MHz. Looks interesting too but costs 10k a pop, but with 4 channels though, so that's a slight relief. However 1 kV is a little less. I work with 4kV @ 2 MHz, so wont be of much use.
https://cleverscope.com/All isolated oscilloscopes achieve high CMRR due to inherent high common mode impedance which alleviates all these measurement problems. A differential probe
if designed properly can also achieve higher CMRR even in the 100s of MHz range.
