Manufacturer Description
The Agilent 8163A/B Lightwave Multimeter is a high-performance optical multimeter for the characterization and evaluation of optical components.
It’s modular format makes it flexible enough to meet changing needs when measuring optical power, power loss, or return loss for single or multi- mode components.
The Agilent 8163A/B Lightwave Multimeter mainframe has two slim module slots. The system can host up to two front-loadable modules, of any combination of the following types:
compact Tunable Laser modules, such as the the Agilent 81689A,
fixed wavelength Laser Sources, such as the Agilent 81650A,
DFB Source modules, such as the Agilent 81662A
Power Sensors, both dual and single, such as the Agilent 81635A,
Fast Power Sensor Modules, such as the Agilent 81637B,
Interface Modules for Optical Heads, such as the Agilent 81618A,
Return Loss Modules, such as the Agilent 81610A
Attenuator Modules, such as the Agilent 81570A
Optical Switch Modules. such as the Agilent 81591B
The front-loadable module slots also support all modules designed for the 8153A Lightwave Multimeter.
