AQ6317B Yokogawa Optical Spectrum Analyzer

The Ando AQ6317B spectral analyzer has been the benchmark for spectral analysis.The Ando AQ6317B covers a wide range of applications including light source evaluation, measurement of lossy wavelength characteristics in optical devices, and waveform analysis for WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) systems.

The Ando AQ6317B is ideally suited for C-band and L-band measurements. with high wavelength accuracy and wavelength linearity, the Ando AQ6317B can evaluate optical equipment for WDM. Built-in analysis features make operation and scalability easy. Ando AQ6317B is the predecessor to the AQ6370 series, which offered a faster processor but was based on a very similar Mono-Chromator build, so the AQ6317B offers excellent spectral analysis capabilities at a lower price.

Compared to the previous Ando AQ6317 model, the wavelength accuracy of the AQ6317B has been improved to ±20 pm, which has been achieved primarily through improvements to the Mono-Chromator, which is now cast instead of the plate assembly. It also provides specifications for L-band. the WDM analysis function and the trap width analysis function have also been improved, and a multi-channel NF analysis function and a filter analysis function have been added. It becomes easier to use together with other improvements such as accelerated scanning. And multi-channel NF analysis function and filter analysis function have been added.

It becomes easier to use with other improvements such as accelerated scanning. It also adds multi-channel NF analysis function and filter analysis function. It becomes easier to use with other improvements (such as accelerated scanning).
