OSA-160 Optical Spectrum Analyzer for Wavelengths of 1280 to 1650 nm
Optical spectrum analyzers with outstanding speed
With the OSA-160 JDSU offers the forerunner to a new family of grating based DWDM analyzer modules for the ONT-family, providing extraordinary speed and functionality.
Highlights
- Revolutionary new optical concept allows for the fastest scanning and guarantees long lifetime.
- Online wavelength calibration guarantees excellent wavelength accuracy, even under field conditions.
- No recalibration required, thus significantly reducing service costs.
- Easy-to-use graphical user interface with built-in FOX functionality (Fiber Optic eXpert) for optimized instrument settings and auto pass/fail analysis.
- Remote Internet-based monitoring for long-term system performance analysis.
Applications
- Automatic DWDM-system analysis - providing a listing and/or graph of all present carriers in terms of channel power, channel wavelength, channel OSNR and total power
- In depth optical spectrum analysis of DWDM systems with enhanced cursor functions and comparison of actual or stored traces
- Performing in-service monitoring of system parameters
Key Features
- Single port optical spectrum analyzer with unsurpassed speed and excellent lifetime.
- Internal "online" wavelength calibration.
- Wide wavelength range of 1280 to 1650 nm.
- Remote operation via a built-in Ethernet port.
