Agilent / HP 86120C Multi-Wavelength Meter 1270 nm to 1650 nm wavelength range
Description:
The Agilent 86120C Multi-Wavelength Meter 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 DWDM signals and multiple lines of Fabry-Perot lasers.
Key Specifications:
• Maximum Number of Laser Lines Input: 200
• Wavelength Range: 1270 – 1650 nm (182 to
236 THz)
• Absolute Accuracy ±2 ppm (±0.003 nm at 1550
nm and at 1310 nm) for laserlines separated
by 15 GHz
• ±3 pm wavelength accuracy and 10 GHz
wavelength resolution
• Characterize WDM spectra during installation
and maintenance
• Automated signal-to noise ratio
measurements
• Calculate center wavelength of "broadband"
sources such as Bragg-grating-filtered ASE or
LEDs
• Characterize Fabry-Perot lasers using the
built-in automated measurement routine
