The Keysight 81634B is an InGaAs optical power sensor head designed for precision measurements across the 800 nm to 1700 nm wavelength range. It integrates into Keysight 8163, 8164, and 8166 multichannel lightwave mainframes, delivering traceable measurement performance across single and multi-channel configurations. The thermally stabilized, hermetically sealed detector operates behind a glass window to isolate measurements from environmental factors including humidity, dust, and temperature variations.
