The AE8600A covers 600–1700 nm with free-space input coupling and a monochromator design that gives strong stray-light rejection. Seven resolution settings from 20 pm to 2 nm, −90 dBm sensitivity and 73 dB dynamic range make it a general-purpose lab and production OSA.
Key Features
- Spectral range 600–1700 nm, free-space coupling, single-mode and multimode fiber input
- 7 resolution settings from 20 pm to 2 nm
- Sensitivity setting down to −90 dBm
- 73 dB dynamic range
- ±0.02 nm wavelength accuracy with built-in calibration and wavelength reference source
- High stray-light rejection from monochromator design
- WDM, light-source and EDFA analysis functions
- 10.1-inch touchscreen; Ethernet, USB and GP-IB interfaces
Typical Applications
- Laser and LED spectral characterization
- Visible-to-NIR source testing
- WDM system test
