Yokogawa expands optical-component test system
-- Test & Measurement World, 10/1/2007
Three new modules are available for the AQ2200 Multiple Application Test System (MATS) from Yokogawa, providing expanded functional performance, lower testing cost, and improved efficiency. The AQ2200-215 optical sensor module measures +30 dBm at 10,000 samples/s and can be used for power measurement and margin testing of WDM transmission equipment. It is also designed for output power and gain testing of optical fiber amplifiers. The AQ2200-412 is a 1x16 optical switch module for testing multiple devices.
The third module, the AQ2200-641 XFP test interface module, provides full signal control and access to a 10-Gbit small form factor pluggable (XFP) transceiver with independent data in and out, bar data in and out, and reference clock in. All XFP transceiver functions are accessible, allowing you to read, write, and control the XFP itself.
