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.

The OSICS BKR module integrates a variable reflector
that can be set from 3 to 55 dB and operates
throughout a large wavelength range.
The OSICS BKR emulates reflectance that normally
occurs from all optical interfaces within fiber optic
systems. It is the perfect tool in R&D to test
transponder prototypes and see how their operation
is affected by undesired back reflection. It could also
be used in large PON/WDM test-bed to stress
transmitters and receivers in the system.● Real-time and Easy Operation
The platform user-friendly interface allows real-

OSICS SLD
The OSICS SLD modules are broadband light
sources based on superluminescent light emitting
diodes also called SLD or SLED.
They cover a broad spectral range with total
output power of 10 mW.
A monitoring photodiode garantees excellent
power stability over time.
Broadband Light Source
Key Features
● Excellent Power Stability
A monitoring photodiode
inside the module allows power for
real-time feedback enabling an extremely stable
output power. This avoids frequent referencing
during component testing.
● Broad Wavelength Range
~150 nm range with a spectral power density
higher than -40 dBm/nm.

● Isolation
The module comprises an isolator to maintain
power stability even in the presence of
backreflections from a test set-up.
OSICS FBLFull-Band Tunable Laser
The OSICS FBL is a unique tunable laser system that
covers the full telecom wavelength range, from
1260 nm to 1680 nm, in a single unit. The output is SSE
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.
