Description
The ASE (Amplified Spontaneous Emission) broadband low coherence light source is an ideal instrument for optical component spectral measurement and system compliance testing in manufacturing and R&D environments. The ASE source comes with a flat spectrum with peak-to-peak ripples less than 1 dB over 1529 nm to 1562 nm, which makes it very useful for Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio and sensor interrogation applications.
The unit comes with a nominal 13 dBm output power and is provided with an internal or external monitor port. The output light is accessed via a pigtailed 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. A variety of standard connector types are available. Custom connectors can also be accommodated. The unit is packaged in a low-profile OEM box with a built-in driver.
