The Multiple Application Platform (MAP) Light Emitting Diode Source (mLED-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.

The mLED-A1 is a high-power LED based light source with variable output power.High output power and excellent wavelength stability, combined with built in modulation circuitry, make this light source suitable for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) component manufacturing and testing. Other applications of this device include sensing, spectroscopy and amplified spontaneous emissions (ASEs) loading for optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) measurements.

Key Features

• Dual independent sources available in a single cassette
• Single-mode (SM)/Multimode (MM) output
• Internal modulation circuitry
• Can be automated when used with MAP-200 LXI-compliant interfaces and IVI drivers
