Industry-leading solutions for CWDM/DWDM and ROADM testing-based systems up to 100 Gbps.

VIAVI offers a full range of OSAs tailored for spectral measurements in CWDM systems in the access network as well as DWDM systems in high-speed backbone networks with data rates up to 40 Gbps or 100 Gbps. The OSA-500RS features VIAVI's unique in-band OSNR method for true OSNR measurements in ROADM-based systems, combined with full-band optical performance in a field-modular design.

Key Features:
New Optical Polarisation Splitting method (OPS-method, VIAVI pat. pending) for measuring true in-band OSNR in ROADM-based networks
In-band OSNR measurement time significantly reduced using a fast polarisation controller
Internal online wavelength calibration guarantees highest wavelength accuracy with no recalibration required, reducing service costs
High filter selectivity and lab-grade optical performance over the full band, 1250 to 1650 nm
Future-proof wide tuning range suitable for all optical DWDM and CWDM (Metro) networks up to 100 Gbps
Channel drop option for troubleshooting and fault location — isolates a single channel from the entire spectrum for in-depth signal analysis with BERT or Q-factor meter
Software option for PMD testing based on the fixed analyser PMD test method
Built-in optical component test applications for laser diodes, LEDs, and optical amplifiers
Compatible with MTS-8000 / T-BERD 8000 and MTS-6000 / T-BERD 6000 platforms

Applications:
Measurement of true in-band OSNR in agile optical networks including ROADM testing and dispersion compensating modules
DWDM and CWDM system testing during installation, maintenance, and network upgrade
Automated DWDM passive and active component testing
System verification testing according to customer preset limits
Verification of ROADM configurations in agile optical networks
Full-band optical spectrum analysis for field-portable platforms
