Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8164B #131950 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8164B is a broadband lightwave component test system designed for characterization and production of optical components such as semiconductor lasers, optical receivers, and other components. Using a range of test accessories and a wide selection of available test instruments, HP 8164B is able to perform a variety of measurement functions from component characterization to testing of component performance in optical systems. AGILENT 8164B includes two lightwave component testers; a wavelength meter for measuring component spectra and a receiver for optical component testing. The receiver uses a series of filters to convert optical signals into a voltage, which can then be used to measure optical power, extinction ratio, and distortion. The wavelength meter uses a laser along with a set of beam splitters to accurately measure wavelengths across a wide range of optical frequencies. 8164B also includes a side port that allows connection to an optical switch controller and a variety of optical components. This allows for modular testing of components using light sources, attenuators, and other accessories. The additional test software and a wide variety of accessories give HEWLETT-PACKARD 8164B the ability to test components in a variety of systems. For production measurements, KEYSIGHT 8164B provides configurable test templates that allow for automated testing at reduced rates, reducing setup time and labor costs. In addition, AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8164B provides integrated statistical analysis capabilities that allow for tracking of optical component performance over time. HP 8164B is a fully integrated system with a touch-screen display that allows for easy documentation, setup of tests, and data logging. This allows for fast and accurate data gathering and post-processing of testing results. It also provides access to a wide range of optical test solutions such as device characterization, optical performance testing, measurement of optical link loss, and integration of optical components. AGILENT 8164B is an ideal system for testing of optical components in production and research applications.
