Ando AQ6317B Optical Spectrum Analyzer 50GHz
Description of Ando AQ6317B
The AQ6317B is an advanced optical spectrum analyzer for a wide range of applications, including light source evaluation, measurement of loss wavelength characteristics in optical devices, and waveform analysis of WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) systems.
Especially at C-band and L-band, the unit achieves high wavelength accuracy and wavelength linearity, and can evaluate optical devices for WDM. Analysis functions make operation and expandability simple.
The AQ6317B contains the latest Ando technology for optical spectrum analyzers. A reference equipment for the next generation.
In comparison with the former model, the wavelength accuracy of the AQ6317B has been improved to ±20 pm, and it is specified as for the L-band as well. WDM analysis function and notch width analysis functions are improved, and multi-channel NF analysis function and optical filter analysis function are newly added. It has become much easier to use with other improvements, such as sweep speed-up.
