Yokogawa AQ6370B Optical Spectrum Analyzer

With 50% higher throughput than its predecessor AQ6370, the Yokogawa AQ6370B is a superior performance Optical Spectrum Analyzer. This model comes with a renewed monochromator and offers a higher measurement accuracy. Its operating wavelength range is 600 to 1700 nm at a high 0.02 nm wavelength resolution, with 70 dB wide close-in dynamic range. The Yokogawa AQ6370B is an ideal solution for general and advanced testing requirements across fiber optics.

The Yokogawa AQ6370B supports testing for the WDM 25Ghz Channel Spacing as well. With this model, the user can measure optical power as great as +20 dBm. This feature enables direct and quick measurements of high power generating sources such as pump lasers and optical amplifiers. The instrument offers the user a choice of measurement sensitivity from seven categories according to measurement speed requirements and test applications. In addition to the telecommunication wavelengths, this model also covers the visible light wavelength region. Thus, it can further be utilized in the industrial material, home electronics, and medical applications.

This instrument offers a special mode for the high dynamic range. With its SWITCH mode "on,” the user can achieve a superior dynamic range by lessening the influence of stray-light. This Optical Spectrum Analyzer comes equipped with various communication interfaces (LAN, GPIB, and RS-232C). Therefore, the user can easily have their instrument connected to their computers. This connectivity brings seamless remote controlling for data sharing and the automation of testing applications. The AQ6370B supports memory sticks and peripherals, such as a keyboard and mouse through the USB 1.1 interface. In addition, an SVGA video out port is provided at its rear panel.
