Lightwave Component Analyzer Software Version 2.3

Up to now there was no posibility to test short reach multimode electro-optical components right at the target wavelength of 850 nm.
This new multimode Lightwave Component Analyzer enables the test of all relevant electro-optical S-parameters, like S21 and S11 or S22 under multimode conditions.

Typical applications are S-parameter tests for short reach FCx8, FCx10 and FCx16 as well as 10GbE. Beside this popular standards this LCA enables also the test of ultra short reach electro-optical components for optical computer and server backplanes as well as chip to chip connections in future high end computers.

Benefits

• Traceable multimode S21 charaterization right at 850nm target wavelength leads to repeatable test results.
• IEEE 802.3ae compatible launched power distribution ensures application realistic test results.
• Fast and accurate calibration with electrical calibration module, no need for additional optical calibration.
• 50um fibre and 62.5um fibre components support.
• Built in average power meter.
• User selectable optical transmitter output power helps to adapt to target test conditions
