We’re proud to be exhibiting at ECOC 2011, and we hope to see you there!

Be sure to visit us at Booth#1254, where we’ll be introducing our high speed optical component test systems and LCOS based WaveProcessor^TM Arrays (WPA) for Next Generation ROADM. It is capable of measuring samples using demo unit.

Swept Test System STS-510

The Santec Swept Test System, STS-510, has been developed to streamline photonic testing, providing a complete solution where high-speed analysis with high resolution and accuracy is key. Combining Santec’s 5^th generation tunable laser, TSL-510, with a Santec Swept Processing Unit SPU-100 and custom software the complete STS-510 system optimizes WDL measurement for use in both R&D and production environments.

• Accurate WDL characteristics measurement (high power repeatability <+/-0.02dB))
• Automatic normalization of laser source power
• High wavelength resolution & accuracy
• Reduced measurement time
• Supporting LabVIEW control software
• Optical components and modules characterization
• Photonic material characterization

LCOS based WaveProcessor^TM Arrays (WPA)

Santec WPA is an array WaveProcessor^TM based on LCOS （Liquid Crystal on Silicon). The WaveProcessor^TM has one input port from which the input optical signals are intelligently, spectrally processed by the LCOS, and one output port. The WaveProcessor^TM Arrays (WPA) are integrated multiple ports type of the WaveProcessor^TM. Each port is independently managed by the command-based user controls. The WPA based on LCOS is the first commercial product of its kind in the world. The WPA will provide a drastic footprint downsizing in the next generation ROADM.

• 4×4 WXC (4 degree, 4 color add/drop ports)
• Upgradable wave-processing in next generation ROADM
• Tunable filters for colorless receivers

WaveProcessor^TM WPA-900

The WPA-900 is a system programmable to generate arbitrary filter shapes with santec’s unique LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) technology. It can be used as an optical equalizer for high-speed signals, as an adaptive DWDM channel filtering, or as a flexible test and measurement system.

• Programmable arbitrary spectral shaping
• Attenuation and bandwidth variable for each individual ITU-T grids
• Excellent frequency resolution, 1GHz (typ.)
• Optical equalizer for high-speed optical signals
• 40Gb/s, 100Gb/s transmission test

Compact&Cost Effective Tunable Laser WSL-100

The WSL-100 is a compact and cost effective tunable laser source for use in WDM systems and optical measurement applications. This laser is tuned over C-band or L-band, covering a 38nm tuning range with 25 or 50 GHz channel spacing to the ITU-T grid. This laser can be controlled either by using the buttons on the front panel, by using GPIB interface or by using USB interface.

• Tunable over C-band or L-band
• 25 or 50GHz ITU-T grid tuning
• High wavelength accuracy and stability with internal wavelength locker
• High optical power (up to 13dBm)
• Low Relative Intensity Noise (RIN)
• GPIB interfaces with the industry standard SCPI command
