Sensors and imaging
The JDSU Benchtop BBS series provides a wide wavelength and high output
power source within the 1525 to 1610 nm window. Its superior performance is
achieved by pumping erbium-doped fiber to generate amplified spontaneous
emission combined with specialized optical filters to achieve optimal flatness
over its operating wavelength range.
Through optimization of spectral power density, spectral uniformity and
optical stability, the broadband source maximizes your capabilities of optical
component spectral measurements and systems compliance tests both in
manufacturing and research and development (R&D) environments.
The Benchtop models provide specialized variants and optical performance not
available in the Multiple Application Platform (MAP) product line. Additional
Benchtop BBS models are available in the MAP BBS cassette product line.
