AE8500,1250nm to 1650nm wavelength range optical spectrum analyzer
Product Overview
As the demand for bandwidth continues to soar, with higher-thanever smartphone and streaming video usage, cable operators must face the challenge of deploying fiber deeper into the network. And because efficiency, speed, accuracy, and reliability metrics are key for workforce productivity, communications service providers (CSP) need a high-performance, efficient, yet affordable test instrument for installing future networks such as FTTx, RFoG and RF PON. AE8500 is a highprecision, high-resolution spectrometer with a wavelength range of 1250 ~ 1650nm. Users can test optical signals with excellent accuracy, and the 12.1" LCD touchscreen and concise UI design make the AE8500 easy to master. It also provides customizable CWDM/DWDM testing, in-band OSNR, light source, EDFA, fiber probe, auto testing, and more. The AE8500 meets the optical spectrum analysis requirements for several years to come - at superior cost-performance.
