Powerful testing capabilities for optical networks
Exfo has enhanced its OTDR software suite to add very powerful testing capabilities that reduce training time by making testing simpler and faster than ever.
This spot-curing system has a small footprint and long lamp life, which enable customers to save on bench space and operating costs.
User-changeable optical filters allow the unit's broad spectral output to be tailored to specific applications, while protecting heat-sensitive substrates.
Filter changes are made externally without having to turn the unit off.
The EXFO Lite System will be displayed at booth 2341 during OFC 2003 from March 25-27 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.
"This entry-level system is the direct result of customer feedback over the years," said Allan Firhoj, General Manager of EXFO Photonic Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of EXFO.
"Some customers don't necessarily need a full-fledged system for their low-volume, manual-precision assembly applications.
As a result, our R and D specialists have designed a unit to meet these specific requirements in a cost-conscious marketplace." The EXFO Lite delivers power with control.
Output intensity and exposure times can be set from the user-friendly front panel.
The new 9-pin I/O port allows the user to control the unit externally.
Internal control systems maintain optimum operating conditions to insure reliable, repeatable cures.
EXFO is the industry leader in light-based, adhesive spot-curing as well as curing process control for the manufacturing of fiber-optic, opto-electronic, and micro-electronic components, as well as other research applications.
Its products deliver precise doses of the appropriate spectral light onto photosensitive and heat-cured adhesives to significantly reduce bonding time and increase repeatability.
