Keysight Lightwave Component Analyzers

Videos

This video introduces the Keysight Lightwave Component Analyzer (LCA) portfolio, engineered for precision characterization of optical and photonic components. These systems support calibrated S‑parameter measurements that deliver stable, repeatable performance across temperature, wavelength, and polarization variations, eliminating the need for manual calibration and ensuring traceability. 
 
LCAs enable electro‑optical measurements up to 110 GHz, making them ideal for high‑frequency characterization required in next‑generation 1.6T designs. By integrating high‑bandwidth vector network analyzers with optical converters, LCAs accurately measure the frequency‑dependent responses of optical modulators, photonic integrated circuits, and other passive and active components. 
 
With support for both single‑mode and multimode testing, Keysight LCAs provide flexibility for diverse optical applications. Their calibrated, high‑frequency measurement capabilities ensure confidence when validating cutting‑edge devices in telecom, datacom, and advanced photonics research.
