The AQ6360 optical analyzer is the fastest optical spectrum analyzer for optical device manufacturing offered by Yokogawa. It is a cost-effective optical spectrum analyzer ideal for industrial manufacturing of telecom devices such as lasers, optical transceivers and optical amplifiers. The high sensitivity of the AQ6360 enables it to measure OSNR conditions more accurately than low performance non grating based designs.
The AQ6360 features a wavelength range of 1200 to 1650 nm (standard model) and 700 to 1700 nm (extended model) for ideal manufacturing test performance. Its free-space optical input structure design allows for guaranteed high coupling efficiency and measurement repeatability. Additional features and functions of the AQ6360 include built-in analysis functions and Ethernet and GPIB remote interfaces.
Optical spectrum analyzers have wavelength-tunable optical filters for light to pass through so a photodetector can convert the signal into a proportional electrical current.
