The plug-in module for Agilent''''s Lightwave Solution Platform 8163B, 8164B, 8166B is ideal for flexible system configuration in applications such as transceiver/receiver test with small foot-print or multiple passive component test with complex cascade. The Agilent modular design of the optical switch features a 2x2 matrix in both SMF and MMF with low insertion loss and highly repeatable switch routing in <10 ms switching time.

Routing of various optical sources such as laser in various wavelenght range and routing of various optical receiver such as power sensor, oscilloscope, BERT.

Features:

• Highest repeatablity specified over 10.000 random switch cycles: 0.02dB
• Guaranteed lifetime > 10 Mio. cycles

Benefits:

• Using one test setup for testing DUTs in all transmission bands.
• Minimize test uncertainties, maximize power budget enables higher production yield an highly competitive product specifications
• Minimize test times - maximize production throughput.
• Minimal influence on transmitted signal.
