HIGHLIGHTS

The plug-in module for Keysight's Lightwave Solution Platform 8163B, 8164B, 8166B is ideal for flexible system configuration in applications such as transceiver/receiver test with small foot-print or multiple passive component test with complex cascade.

The Keysight modular design of the optical switch features a 1x4 matrix in both SMF and MMF with low insertion loss and highly repeatable switch routing in <10 ms switching time.

Routing of various optical sources such as laser in various wavelenght range and routing of various optical receiver such as power sensor, oscilloscope, BERT.

Key specifications, Features:

  • Highest repeatablity specified over 10.000 random switch cycles: 0.03dB
  • Guaranteed lifetime > 10 Mio. cycles
  • Insertion Loss < 2dB
  • PDL < 0.07dB for Single-mode option
  • Return Loss > 55dB
  • Crosstalk up to -70dB
  • High switching speed < 10ms

Benefits:

  • Using one test setup for testing DUTs in all transmission bands.
  • High uptime of test system minimize cost of ownership.
  • Minimize test uncertainties, maximize power budget enables higher production yield an highly competitive product specifications.
  • Minimize test times - maximize production throughput.
  • Minimal influence on transmitted signal.
