CTP10 - Passive optical component testing platform - 2

CTP10 PLATFORM The CTP10 is a modular measurement platform for efficient testing of passive components in 24/7 operation. The platform operates together with the T100S-HP tunable laser to achieve high-resolution spectral characterization within seconds. Single-sweep insertion loss measurements with 70 dB dynamic range can be performed with unprecedented speed and resolution. With up to 50 detectors connected to the platform, it is an ideal instrument for characterization of large port count components used in DWDM networks and photonic integrated circuit (PIC) applications. The platform...

CTP10 - Passive optical component testing platform - 3

FASTEST SWEPT IL AND RL Fast and reliable insertion loss and return loss measurements are key to any R&D or manufacturing passive component test bench. Other parameters such as isolation, free spectral range or directivity all rely on a high-quality loss measurement. Thanks to its state-of-the-art electronics, the CTP10 outperforms all existing instruments. It offers a 70 dB dynamic range for IL in a single sweep for a tunable laser speed at 100 nm/sec with 10 dBm output power and eliminates the need for post-processing steps such as trace stitching and bandwidth correction. The platform...
