Agilent multi-wavelength meters are Michelson interferometer-based instruments that measure wavelength and optical power of laser light over a specified wavelength range. Simultaneous measurements of multiple laser lines are performed allowing measurements of DWDM signals and multiple lines of Fabry-Perot lasers. Each laser line is assumed to have a linewidth (including modulation sidebands) of less than:
10 GHz for the 86120B
5 GHz for the 86120C and
2.5GHz for the 86122A
This technical specifications sheet describes the measurement accuracy and operating conditions of the Agilent 86120B, 86120C and 86122A Multi-Wavelength Meters. The specifications apply to all functions over the temperature range of 0 to 55 ℃ and relative humidity <95% (unless otherwise noted). All specifications apply after the instrument's temperature has been stabilized after 15 minutes continuous operation. and when the instruments is in NORMAL updat mode (86120B and 86120C).
