OSICS-Mainframe_DS_201309, September 2013.

OSICS Mainframe8-Channel Mainframe

-

The OSICS mainframe can host up to eight

pluggable modules for matching your

particular test applications. It is easy-to-use

thanks to the front panel interface that offers

direct control of the eight modules. Moreover,

the mainframe is reliable and cost effective for

laboratory use as well as for 24/7 use in

manufacturing plants.

The front panel interface of the mainframe

comprises a display and rotary knob allowing easy

navigation in the module tabs. They enable fast

setup and control of the parameter values. During

normal operation, the parameters of all the

modules are displayed simultaneously in the main

tab and updated in real-time.

Front Panel

Connectors for remote operation are located at

the back panel of the mainframe: RS-232, GPIB

and Interlock.

There are also 18 BNC connectors for different

purposes. The first is for synchronization of the

mainframe and the second for application of an

external modulation signal to the mainframe.

In addition, there are two BNC connectors per

module: one for monitoring of power, current,

and temperature and the other for an analog

modulation output signal. Such a pair is only

operating if supported by the module.

OSICS-ATN_DS_201309, September 2013.

OSICS ATN-HP

The OSICS ATN module integrates industry standard

attenuator components. It combines a

60 dB attenuation range and operates throughout a

large wavelength range.

As part of a test set-up, ATN modules can be used to

equalize channels and to reach low power levels

without modifying source signal-to-noise ratio.

This is especially useful for optical amplifier

characterization.

The ability to receive up to 2 W input power allows to

use the module in large channel count DWDM test-

beds.

● Low Return Loss

There is no more need to use additional optical

isolator in front of the attenuator to avoid

perturbations to your lasers stability thanks to

the low return loss of the OSICS ATN.

● 2 W Input Power

for optical amplifier

testing or multi-wavelength

attenuation.

● 60 dB Attenuation Range with

0.1 dB Resolution

The large attenuation range capability allows to

adapt to any set-up with a single instrument.

● Real-time and Easy Operation

The platform user-friendly interface allows real-

time adjustment of the attenuation.

Each module attenuation can be read at any

time on the OSICS front panel.

● Single-slot Module Inside the OSICS Platform

You will benefit from all OSICS platform

capabilities: remote commands, ability to host up

to 8 modules including DFBs, high performances

tunable laser sources, optical switches, etc.

free with power of at least 0 dBm. The system consists

of four OSICS T100 modules integrated with an optical

switch. The single fiber output combined with Yenista's

proven OSICS platform means reliable, fully automated

test systems can be easily established.

Applications

1260 nm to 1680 nm

User Friendly Control Interface

Proven Reliability

All telecom wavelength bands (O, E, S, C, L and U) are

supported with a single fiber output. This is particularly

useful for silicon photonics, CWDM, PON and photonic

crystal characterization. It also allows automated testing

over the entire wavelength range.

The front panel interface is a real benefit in a laboratory

environment. The display shows, at a glance, the

settings of all installed modules and alleviates the need

for a separate control PC.

The OSICS platform and the opto-mechanics in the full-

band tunable laser are well established and widely used

in critical test environments in the telecoms industry.

Recent innovations have optimised performance whilst

maintaining the design of the critical kinematic chain

which is essential for reliable operation.

Telecom System & Component Testing The ultra-low SSE is a big advantage and enables

repeatable high dynamic range measurements.

Production environments benefit from the proven

reliability and easy to use interface.

Material Characterization Ideal for photonic crystal and fiber characterization.

Sensors & SpectroscopyThe wavelength can be modulated to scan across a gas

line for gas sensor research and spectroscopy.

Scientific Research & DevelopmentExtensive input and output ports provide added

flexibility and satisfy a wide range of test requirements.

90 dB / 0.1 nm Ultra-low Optical Noise Yenista's unique T100 cavity eliminates the broadband

spontaneous emission (SSE) that is normally present in

an external cavity laser's output. The OSICS T100 has

one of the lowest figures of merit for SSE of any

tunable laser on the market and gives a dramatic

improvement in a measurement's dynamic range.

Modular FlexibilityThe modular design means a partial system can be

purchased initially. This can then be upgraded at a later

date thus staggering capital expenditure. The system is

also compatible with legacy OSICS modules. These can

be integrated into the system if available.

Stable OutputThe OSICS FBL has benefited from Yenista's experience

in developing high performance tunable lasers. The

optical design ensures both output power and

wavelength are stable with excellent repeatability.

Key Features

Specifications

The OSICS Full Band Laser uses five slots of

the OSICS mainframe. The three spare slots

can be used to support additional

modules. These can be attenuators or

switches to create a complete test system,

or additonal lasers and light sources. The

OSICS mainframe will identify the modules

installed and display the setting for each

module on the front panel. All modules can

be controlled from the front panel or

through the GPIB or RS-232C interfaces.

SMF and PMF jumpers are available with FC/PC,

FC/APC, SC/PC and SC/APC connectors. They are

compatible with the instruments.

Cover Plates

Cover plates are available for mounting onto

empty OSICS module slots for electrical safety.

Handles

Handles are available for mounting an OSICS

mainframe into a 19-inch rack.

The handles can also be used for carrying the

instrument.

0.3 meters long SMF jumpers with FC/APC

connectors on both sides are adapted to make

connections between modules located in the

same OSICS mainframe. They are well suited for
