The Multiple Application Platform (MAP) Broadband Source (mBBS-A1) is optimized for the industry-leading JDSU MAP-200 platform. Based on the previous-generation Multiple Application Platform (MAP), the MAP-200 is the first photonic layer lab and manufacturing platform that is LAN Extensions for Instrumentation (LXI)-compliant by conforming to the required physical attributes, Ethernet connectivity, and interchangeable virtual instrument (IVI) drivers. The MAP-200 platform is optimized for density and maximum configurability to meet specific application requirements in the smallest possible foot print.
Utilizing the latest advances in erbium technology, the MAP BBS offers an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) output that features flattened high power density across the C-band. The source provides high spectral stability.
The addition of the BBS Cassette can be used for many applications including OSNR (optical signal to noise ratio) experiments, calibration of test equipment, and noise source for active or passive component testing.
The MAP BBS models provide specialized variants and optical performance not available in the Benchtop BBS. Additional BBS models are available in the Benchtop BBS product line for applications requiring higher output power.
