Description

The Exfo WA-7600 Multiline Optical Channel Analyzer steps up the game for DWDM system analysis compared to its cousin, the WA-7100. Utilizing the same proven scanning Michelson interferometer technology, it delivers exceptional accuracy in measuring the absolute wavelength, power, and OSNR (Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio) of multiplexed optical signals. Where the WA-7600 excels is its ability to handle a wider range of channels simultaneously, making it ideal for high-density DWDM systems. This translates to faster and more efficient testing procedures, crucial for network maintenance and troubleshooting. The WA-7600 maintains an impressive level of precision, boasting a guaranteed absolute wavelength accuracy of ±0.2 ppm (parts per million), surpassing the WA-7100. Furthermore, it offers a high spectral resolution of 30 pm, enabling clear differentiation between closely spaced DWDM channels, important for current and potentially future tighter channel spacing deployments.

Specifications

  • Measurement Technique: Scanning Michelson Interferometer
  • Target Application: Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Systems Analysis (High-Density Channels)
  • Key Measurements:
    • Absolute Wavelength
    • Channel Power
    • Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio (OSNR)
  • Absolute Wavelength Accuracy: ±0.2 ppm (parts per million) (superior to WA-7100)
  • Spectral Resolution: 30 pm (picometers)
  • Optical Input: Likely accepts a single-mode fiber connector (specific type not explicitly stated)
  • Display: User-friendly display showing the complete optical spectrum with channel information
  • Advantages over EXFO WA-7100:
    • Handles a wider range of channels simultaneously (better for high-density DWDM systems)
    • Faster and more efficient testing
  • Additional Features:
    • Suitable for DWDM channel spacing of 100 GHz, 50 GHz, and potentially future 25 GHz deployments (based on resolution)
  • Benefits:
    • Exceptional accuracy for DWDM analysis
    • Enables faster testing of high-channel-count systems
    • Provides clear visual representation of channel distribution and power levels
