QUEBEC CITY,
Sept. 3, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ - EXFO
Inc. (NASDAQ: EXFO) (TSX: EXF) today unveiled the FLS-2800 Benchtop
ITLA Tunable Laser Source, a high-power, continuous wave (CW) laser
unit with narrow linewidth and high-resolution tunability.
Developed jointly with Coherent Solutions, it is currently
available exclusively from EXFO.
The FLS-2800 Benchtop ITLA Tunable Laser Source
provides researchers and engineers with a cost-effective and
versatile solution for various applications, including
coherent/orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)
transmission and WDM network emulation. It is offered in single- or
dual-laser configuration, with each laser being controlled
independently. The front-panel knob allows the wavelength and power
to be quickly and precisely adjusted.
The USB and Ethernet ports at the back of the
FLS-2800 make it possible to remotely control the unit with the
EXFO TLM application, which is also compatible with the IQS-2800.
The TLM user interface clearly displays the laser controls and
status for utmost user-friendliness and effectiveness. Plus, when
automation is required, SCPI commands can be used.
For a live demonstration of the FLS-2800, visit
EXFO at booth 1B30 at the China International Optoelectronic Expo,
from September 4 to 7, 2013, at the
Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center.
