Agilent/Keysight N7762A Dual-Channel Variable Optical Attenuator

The Keysight/Agilent N7762A is a two-channel variable optical attenuator designed for high-performance optical testing applications. As an extension of the N77xx-series, it offers a compact, space-saving form factor within a half-width rack unit, integrating multiple functions for setting attenuation and power levels. This instrument is engineered to enhance test throughput with fast and precise optical power level settings, featuring active power control to maintain a constant output. Its multichannel capability allows for simultaneous control of multiple ports, significantly reducing the time required for characterizing multiport and multichannel components and network equipment. The N7762A is fully compatible with programs developed for the Agilent 8157x and 8156x modular attenuators and can be controlled via LAN, USB, and GPIB interfaces, ensuring broad compatibility with existing test setups. It includes user-friendly GUI software for simplified integration and operation.
