Benefits:
  • High optical output power offers the flexibility in test environment and enables test and characterization of nonlinear effects which the customer could not do so far.
  • The precise tunability allows to shift the center wavelength by one DWDM transmission channel to the adjacent channel in dense WDM systems.
  • The coherence control allows to change the linewidth of the laser to avoid problems with stimulated Brillioun scattering, and effects generated by unwanted cavities.
  • The built-in digital modulation enables applications like time-domain extinction testing of EDFA noise figure.
  • The built-in isolator ensures laser stability, even when reflections are present in the optical path.
