EXFO FTB-5230 1250 to 1650 nm Optical Spectrum Analyzer (OSA) Module

The Exfo FTB-5230 is a powerful optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) designed to meet the challenges of DWDM applications. With the increasing sophistication of communication networks comes the need for equally powerful test and measurement equipment designed to meet the challenges of DWDM. Whether testing involves manufacturing, installing and commissioning network fiber, or managing, maintaining, monitoring and troubleshooting performance elements, EXFO’s FTB-5230 Optical Spectrum Analyzers (OSAs) are ready to handle any situation. Since CWDM systems generally use uncooled lasers, whose typical wavelength drift is 0.1 nm per degree Celsius, it is critical to track the evolution and drift of the lasers’ central wavelength. And since path attenuation can significantly vary within a single channel, passband drift also creates power drift. This is why it becomes extremely important to monitor—simultaneously for all CWDM channels—the evolution of peak power and wavelength over time. The FTB-5230 Optical Spectrum Analyzer’s Drift mode functionalities makes this an easy task. Specifications. Wavelength range (nm): 1250 to 1650. Resolution bandwidth FWHM (nm): <= 0.1.

*This is a Web introductory price for one calibration of the EXFO FTB-5230. Price does not in most cases include measurement performance data. Pricing does include NIST traceable calibration and issue of a calibration certificate and calibration label. Pricing may vary slightly due to volume and location of laboratory supporting calibration. Volume pricing may apply. On-site fees may apply depending on logistics, location and volume of work to be completed during the visit.

Broadband Source (BBS)
A Broadband Source is a spectrally large source that emits a signal which contains a continuous range of frequencies with a broad optical bandwidth (usually 100 nm or more). Sometimes called a white light source, there are two different meanings of this term. Visible white light and a source which does not necessarily emit in the visible spectral region.

Coherence
Coherence is the pattern and or relationships of waves due to phase properties.

Linearity
Linearity is the relative difference between the displayed power ratio, Dx/D0, and the actual (true) power ratio Px/P0 caused by changing the displayed power level from the reference level, D0, to an arbitrary displayed level, Dx.

Power Flatness Over Modulation
When changing the wavelength and modulation frequency, and measuring the differences between actual and displayed power levels (in dB), the power flatness is ± half the span between the maximum and the minimum value of all differences.

Singlemode fiber
Singlemode Fiber has a small core, only about 9 microns, and is used for telephony and CATV with laser sources at 1300 and 1550 nm. It can go very long distances at very high speeds. Both multimode and singlemode fiber have an outside diameter of 125 microns - about 5 thousandths of an inch - just slightly larger than a human hair.
