Introduction
1.1 ModBox Overview
ModBox systems are advanced modulation format optical transmitters, laser
systems, sensing instruments and application specific modulation units.
In the ModBox systems, we use innovative optoelectronics setups with premium
components to provide world class modulation solutions to our customers.
The ModBox systems address a broad variety of applications including but not
limited to analog modulation, all digital format optical communication, ultrafast
laser pulse generation, laser pulse picking, spectral broadening, etc. We can also
work towards custom systems to exceed some clients’ specifications needs.
All modulation solutions come with the peace of mind of a bench top, plug &
play equipment that can be remotely controlled using a pc.

NTRODUCTION
The ModBox-VNA is a bench top modulation unit intended at expanding vector
network analysis features into the optical domain. The ModBox VNA can operate
in the C-Band, O-Band, 850 nm and other optical bands with up to 70 GHz
bandwidth (-6dB) following customer requests.
This unit will transfer any analog signal from the electrical to the optical domain
with the least amount of signal distortion. This electrical signal may be generated
