APEX AP2040

APEX Technologies AP2040 very high resolution Optical Spectrum Analyzer (OSA)

resolution from 250 GHz to 5 MHz
C and L bands
wavelength measurement with +/- 3 pm accuracy
dynamic range >60dB @ +/- 3 pm
two independent internal channels

The Apex Technologies AP2040 offers 500 times better resolution than a conventional OSA and very high wavelength measurement accuracy (5 MHz/0.04 pm). In addition, it enables simultaneous analysis of two orthogonal polarization axes. Two models of the AP2040 version are currently available on the market
