Discover the highest resolution Optical Sprectrum Analyzer in the market now available for many different wavelength ranges between 1030 nm to 1630 nm !
Key figures
Wavelength ranges available
(Any custom range between 725nm and 1650nm available upon request)
Thanks to the integration of its own home made external cavity tunable laser source, APEX Technologies propose a large range of Optical Spectrum Analyzers between 1030 nm to 1650 nm. The high resolution is not only available in the C and L band any more, but also around 1064 nm, in the O band, the E band and the S band too ! The TLS can be integrated inside the equipment or into an external benchtop as an option. The advantage of the latter configuration is that the TLS can be connected to several APEX Technologies equipment based on interferometric principle (OSA, OCSA, OFDR).
T Band
1040 – 1070 nm
T Band
1150 – 1260 nm
O Band
1265 – 1355 nm
E Band
1335 – 1435 nm
S Band
1445 – 1520 nm
C+L Band
1520 – 1630 nm

Ultra high Optical Bandwidth Filter resolution !
With up to 500 times better resolution than the best standard grating based Optical Spectrum Analyzer on the market, these new generation Optical Spectrum Analyzers can display your signal real spectrum shape and not only its envelope.
Use it as a wavelength meter…
An ultra high dynamic and close-in dynamic range!
Perfect resolution filters for OSNR measurement !
This sharp integration allows our OSA to perform a much more realistic level measurement, essential for an accurate OSNR measurement.
Two Optical Spectrum Analyzers channels, one per polarization axis !
OPTIONS
Optionally, the built-in Tunable Laser Source(s) can also be used as independents Tunable Laser(s). A Tunable Laser Source output and a control software can be integrated into the equipment. This Tunable Laser(s) is/are combining narrow linewidth, good SMSR and fine wavelength setting resolution.
Optionally, two additional PM inputs directly connected to each internal channels are available. With these 2 additional PM inputs, two independent signals can be analysed simultaneously.
By using this option, the equipment can be used as two Optical Spectrum Analyzers !
The Tracking generator option allows the user to synchronise the Tunable Laser Source output with the Optical Spectrum Analyzer measurement, thus active and passive components transmission/reflection measurements (insertion loss/gain) are possible with a dynamic range of 63 dB and a resolution of 1 MHz (8 fm). This function is really useful for component analysis as Fibre Brag Grating transfer function characterization.
Optionnaly, the state of polarization can be measured.
Three different displaying modes exist: Jones graph, Poincaré sphere and Stockes parameters oscilloscope.
Polarization extinction ratio (PER) can be meausred too.
