WDM component characterisation base kit
SKU
FP1748
This full series of kits enables students to acquire practical experience in the investigation, analysis and characteristics of optical fibre components, laser diodes, various Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) systems, and Bragg Gratings.
- Suitable for courses in Optical Science and Photonics at undergraduate level and beyond.
This series is a modular and expandable range of kits investigating, analysing and characterising:
- Wavelength Division Multiplex (WDM) component
- Bragg Gratings
- 1310/1550nm WDM Systems
- Dense WDM (DWDM) Systems
This allows immediate or future expansion of the kit as desired.
