EXFO OSA20 Optical Spectrum Analyser

The OSA20 is the only grating-based Optical Spectrum Analyzer that combines state-of-the-art performance, ease of use, automation, top-shelf analysis tools and fast measurements. This makes it ideal not only for next-gen optical telecom network R&D but also for manufacturing of high-end products such as transceivers or ROADMs. The OSA20’s monochromator is built around EXFO’s renowned filter technology. Its narrow bandwidth (20 pm) is maintained throughout the spectral range of operation (1250 – 1700 nm). The monochromator also stands out by its extremely sharp filter edges and low stray light, ideal for optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR) measurement of tightly packed WDM channel testing.
