Optical power meters aimed at
manufacturing use
For optical system and component manufacturing applications, a suite of high-performance optical power meters have ultra-high power configurations, with one, two or four independent detectors each.
Electro-Optical Engineering has added three new models to the IQS-1700 Power Meter series for optical system and component manufacturing applications The IQS-1700 Power Meter series, a suite of next-generation, high-performance optical power meters housed inside the IQS-500 Intelligent Test System, is now available with different detector sizes and types, standard- and low-polarization sensitivity options, as well as ultra-high power configurations-with one, two or four independent detectors per module

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.
The IQS-1700 offers high-speed auto-ranging, multi-channel testing, low polarization dependence, and ease of integration with other test modules.
Key specifications include full auto-ranging at a sampling rate of 5 kHz, up to +40dBm power handling, 0.0001dB power measurement resolution, and +/-0.005 dB polarization dependence.
"An optical power meter represents the single-most critical building block for physical-layer testing," said tienne Gagnon, Director of Product Management at EXFO.
"This is why we are constantly enhancing our full suite of power meters to provide system and component manufacturers with the most comprehensive and highest-performance solution on the market.
"These latest additions to our unique IQS optical test platform are a demonstration of our relentless commitment to expand our best-in-class offering to manufacturers, allowing full technology re-use from R and D and product qualification to high-volume manufacturing, while accelerating time-to-market which is so key in today's market." The IQS-1700 Power Meter series will be displayed at booth 2341 during OFC 2003 from March 25-27 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, USA.
