Full flexibility for Filtering and Switching operations in optical communications
The WaveShaper B-Series family allows arbitrary optical filtering of attenuation and phase (1000B and 4000B only) across the Super C-Band, Super L-Band or the entire C+L band. The 4000B allows wavelength selective optical switching using the 1 x 4 optical port configuration and in addition the 1000B and the 4000B provide a high resolution mode of operation in which the optical signal passes twice through the grating based monochromator. This high resolution mode ensures narrow channel shapes in combination with steep filter slopes of more than 700 dB/nm. This instrument family is broadly used in Research, Development and Manufacturing applications.
