The Agilent 86121A WDM Channel Analyzer is a Michelson interferometer-based instrument that measures wavelength and optical power of laser light in the 1270 to 1650 nm wavelength range. Simultaneous measurements of multiple laser lines are performed allowing measurements of dense division multiplexed signals. Each laser line is assumed to have a linewidth (including modulation sidebands) of less than 5 GHz.
Features:
Easy to use for WDM system test in the field
Measure wavelengths to within 3 pm absolute accuracy (NIST-traceable)
Simplify transfer of measurement results using the built-in floppy disk drive, printer or the RS-232 interface
