Ando AQ6317 600-1750nm Optical Spectrum Analyzer

Ando AQ6317,”This optical spectrum analyzer offers high-resolution spectral analysis across a wavelength range of 600 to 1750 nm. Designed for use in telecom, photonics, and R&D applications, the AQ6317 provides a powerful platform for evaluating optical components and systems. It features a monochromator-based design with a diffraction grating, allowing for narrow resolution bandwidths and excellent wavelength accuracy. This enables precise characterization of laser sources, fiber amplifiers, WDM systems, and passive components. The analyzer supports various measurement functions including peak search, marker readout, and signal-to-noise ratio analysis. With high dynamic range and low stray light, it ensures accurate detection of weak signals in the presence of strong nearby signals. The user interface is intuitive, with a bright display and comprehensive menu system for quick setup and measurement. Ethernet and GP-IB interfaces allow remote control and integration into automated test systems. Engineers use the AQ6317 for tasks such as monitoring ASE noise, evaluating transmission spectra, and verifying component specifications. Its versatility, measurement precision, and robust construction make it a staple in optical test environments, especially in labs and production lines focused on fiber optic communication technologies and component manufacturing.”
