The 338 Series Optical Wavelength Meter from Bristol Instruments combines speed and affordability to address the most critical requirements of optical transceiver manufacturers.
Bristol Instruments has added a new product to its 338 optical wavelength meter series.
The 438 Series Multi-Wavelength Meter from Bristol Instruments (booth 3412) combines Michelson interferometer-based technology with fast Fourier transform analysis in order to measure the wavelength, power, and optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) of as many as 1000 discrete optical signals. With features such as high accuracy and a measurement rate of 10Hz, the model 438 provides the most precise, reliable, and efficient wavelength testing to satisfy the needs of any manufacturing engineer, the company claims.
