More Information

Newport / New Focus 6428 Vidia Swept Tunable Laser Source Overview

Features:

  • Output Power: >+6 dBm (1520-1570 nm), >0 dBm (1500-1575 nm)
  • Wavelength Range: 1500 - 1575 nm
  • Fast Scan Speeds: 100 nm/s
  • Step, Sweep, or Manual Operation
  • Low ASE/SSE, Good Side Mode Suppression
  • Remote RS232 and GPIB Operation Capabilities
The New Focus 6428 Vidia-Swept tunable laser source lets you characterize components faster than an OSA with the resolution bandwidth of a narrow-linewidth laser. Testing and qualifying DWDM components takes seconds rather than the minutes. The 6428 is designed specifically for DWDM - component testing applications which require the fastest and highest-resolution wavelength measurements. And, the Vidia-Swept is very accurate. With guaranteed open-loop absolute wavelength accuracy (AWA) of ±30 pm throughout the entire scan-even at 100 nm/s-you will be able to observe spectral changes in real-time over wide wavelength ranges while you are making critical adjustments to components on the manufacturing floor. The Vidia-Swept tunable laser source is the ideal tool for increasing measurement efficiency and maximizing throughput and yield.

The Newport 6428 Vidia Swept Tunable Laser Source may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
