Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8153A #81537 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8153A is a digital frequency-domain lightwave measurement equipment designed for optical components testing and communication systems. Utilizing the latest in frequency-domain swept lightwave technology, this instrument is the perfect tool for performing accurate and reliable lightwave measurements. HP 8153A system is used to measure the optical frequency response of components such as laser diodes, isolators, circulators and couplers. It also measures other optical performance characteristics such as insertion loss, return loss and bandwidth. This instrument can be used both in the lab and in the field, providing users with utmost flexibility. AGILENT 8153A utilizes a frequency-domain swept lightwave source such as a laser or an LED, and an optical head containing a receiver and a modulator. The lightwave source is modulated by the modulator, and the lightwave frequency is swept across a range determined by the user. The transmitted signals are received by the receiver and the resulting data is transferred to the main unit for analysis. The main unit consists of a powerful Windows-based software, allowing users to easily and accurately display and analyze different measurements. It also features a built-in digital oscilloscope, a high-accuracy waveform generator, an optical autotrax analyzer, as well as waveform analysis and tracking functions. KEYSIGHT 8153A also includes a built-in calibration unit. This calibration machine can be used to calibrate the electronics of HEWLETT-PACKARD 8153A to ensure the accuracy of all of its measurements. The tool also includes several other options such as a data storage and retrieval function and a special asset remote control. Overall, 8153A is an incredibly versatile and reliable instrument providing users with the perfect tool for performing accurate and repeatable frequency-domain lightwave measurements. It is suitable for both lab and field use, and its built-in calibration model ensures that all the measurements are accurate and reliable.
