Used TEKTRONIX DSA 90804A #9118204 for sale

TEKTRONIX DSA 90804A is a state-of-the-art electro-optical test and measurement instrument that is capable of providing high-resolution measurements with pinpoint accuracy. Designed for laboratory applications, DSA 90804A utilizes a unique proprietary combination of optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR) and dispersed spectroscopy (DS) technologies to deliver a range of features and functionalities for the most demanding applications. TEKTRONIX DSA 90804A has three main components: the optical head which houses the OTDR and DS engines, the computer which runs the software, and the touchscreen user interface. The DS engine is a patented spectroscopy technology that uses a high-resolution grating to measure the light of a reflective signal. The light is dispersed as a function of wavelength, then gathered by a detector and analyzed, producing an output in the form of a spectrum. This output can be used to identify the properties of reflective materials or components. OTDR is a diagnostic technology that works by sweeping a short optical pulse along any link, reflecting off any of the link components and correlating the reflections to characterize the properties of the link, such as its length, loss, and any flaws present. With DSA 90804A, the OTDR process is automatic, providing the user with a detailed view of the link in an intuitive graphical format. The computer component of TEKTRONIX DSA 90804A runs Windows and contains powerful application software. This software drives automated pass/fail tests, provides acquisition and analysis of results, and enables users to store data and results for future reference. The touchscreen user interface makes it easy to configure tests, execute measurements, and view results. DSA 90804A can debug optical networks, verify multi-mode fiber links, and measure link loss in managed/unmanaged optics. It also offers different analysis displays, provides fast, reliable results, and can be easily upgraded with over 20 available accessories. TEKTRONIX DSA 90804A is a cost-effective, accurate, and user-friendly solution for electro-optical testing and diagnostics. It offers an outstanding combination of performance, reliability, and ease-of-use, making it an ideal instrument for today's demanding laboratory applications.
