FX87/87s

DWDM Tunable Laser Source (TLS)

The FX87 DWDM TLS can be tuned to any G.694.1 channel on the 50 GHz frequency grid over the C-band spectrum. Test applications include verifying end-end wavelength routing and troubleshooting passive Multiplexer and Demultiplexer network elements. Optimized for Fiber Deep, Metro and Core networks employing DWDM technology. Automate multi-wave DWDM IL loss measurement and verify cable routes using our new Sweep Loss Test Kit, comprised of FX87s and FX82s meters.
