Optical spectrum analyser
This chapter describes the different steps in carrying out a spectrum analysis of
an optical signal by an MTS equipped with a WDM 507x module:
❏
OSA configuration test
❏
Display of spectrum and results of the WDM analysis
Configuration of the instrument
After connecting the fiber to be tested to the optical connector, you must select
the OSA module (see "Instrument Set up" on page 3-11), then setup this module.
OSA test setup
To setup the MTS
e
for an OSA test on a fiber, press the
