Description

Ando’s AQ8423Z optical amplifier analyzer employs a new optical technique the pulse method for easy, accurate evaluation of optical fiber amplifiers. This measurement system is able to provide accurate measurements even when the input level of the optical amplifier signal is high, a challenging task with conventional measurement systems. Some of the features are:

Employs optical pulse-method for the optical method

High-performance DFB-LD light source can be built in

Optical amplifier input level exceeds +3 dBm (2mW)

Enables NF measurement by measuring the beat noise between optical fiber amplifier signal power and ASE power

High-accuracy gain and NF measurements

Simple configuration and operation provides substantial savings in time and cost for both R&D and production line applications

Simple operation: Complete measurements with one touch

Superior visibility: 9.4-inch color LCD

Data logging: 3.5-inch FDD (1.2/144 MB), internal memory, internal printer

Calibration function: Internal self calibrating function

Video output: VGA compatible output
