iOSNRG-1000-TUN Benchtop Intelligent Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio Generator

OSNR Range 5-38 dB; 1529-1561.5 nm; Min. Optical Input Power -10 dBm, Min. Optical Output Power +8 dBm; Channel Spacing 50-400 GHz

OZ Optics' iOSNRG-1000-TUN intelligent optical signal-to-noise ratio generator (iOSNRG) has been designed to allow users to inject a programmable level of noise into an optical signal, creating a precisely defined signal-to-noise ratio. All iOSNRG settings can be controlled automatically with the user-friendly touch panel or computer interface.

With a built-in bandwidth-adjustable tunable filter, the wavelength can be selected to be any channel within the ITU 50G Grid or any other ITU Grid. The output power level is user programmable, making the iOSNRG-1000-TUN an ideal instrument for doing OSNR measurements in data communication systems. The instrument comes with GPIB, USB, and Ethernet interfaces, allowing it to be controlled by a computer, for automated testing of systems or devices.
