Its affordable price point, along with a five-year warranty, provides the lowest cost of ownership compared with similar systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guaranteed accuracy with continuous calibration<\/strong><br \/>\nThe 338 Optical Wavelength Meter uses proven Michelson interferometer-based technology with fast Fourier transform analysis to accurately measure the wavelength of CW and modulated signals.<\/p>\n<p>Continuous calibration with a built-in wavelength standard maintains the performance of the 338 Optical Wavelength Meter over long periods of time. What\u2019s more, every 338 system is rigorously tested with laser sources that are traceable to NIST standards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Designed for convenience, built to last<\/strong><br \/>\nOperation of the 338 Series Optical Wavelength Meter is straightforward.<\/p>\n<p>The optical signal enters the model 338 through an FC (UPC or APC) fibre optic connector on the front panel. The system\u2019s high sensitivity results in an input power requirement as low as -30 dBm (1 \u00b5W). Automatic attenuation instantly adjusts the signal for optimum performance.<\/p>\n<p>A convenient touch-screen display on the instrument&#8217;s front panel controls the 338 system and reports the measured wavelength and power. The measurement data can also be sent to a PC using a library of SCPI commands via standard USB or Ethernet interface, or an optional GPIB interface.<\/p>\n<p>The rugged design of the 338 Optical Wavelength Meter provides long-term reliable operation that is backed by a five-year warranty covering all parts and labour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 338 Series Optical Wavelength Meter from Bristol Instruments combines speed and affordability to address the most important requirements of optical transceiver manufacturers.
