High Resolution Optical Spectrum Analyzers

 

 

optical spectrum analyzer

 

 

AP2050A : C band, 20 MHz resolution
AP2052A : L band, 20 MHz resolution
AP2051A : C + L band, 20 MHz resolution
AP2041B : C + L band, 5 MHz resolution
AP2043B : extended C + L band, 5 MHz resolution

The APEX Technologies Optical Spectrum Analyzers clearly show much more details than the grating based OSA and leaves any kind of guess work behind. Based on an interferometric principle.

APEX Technologies high resolution optical spectrum analyzer can achive a 248 times better resolution than monochromator based optical spectrum analyzer.
