OptoTest introduce Integrating Sphere OptoTest recently launched the OP-SPHR Integrating Sphere, a cost-effective solution for testing fibres terminated with high- density connectors.
AquaKleen™ from Polywater
The AquaKleen™, water-based fibre cleaner is formulated for cleaning fibre and end faces. Its excellent wetting reaches precision parts to lift dust, buffer gel, lint, finger prints, and oils. AquaKleen™ contains innovative, water-based technology and a special blend of 94% ultra-pure deionized water with proprietary solvents, leaves no residue. An environmentally desirable cleaner, AquaKleen(tm) is non-flammable and has low toxicity for safe use. Products are packaged in easy-to-use drop bottles that allow for precision cleaning applications, waste reduction and limit contamination. Also available in litter bottles for mass cleaning.

As experts in tunable laser technology, Santec built the world’s first commercially available external cavity tunable laser back in 1987. This year they introduce their latest model tunable laser, the TSL-550. Innovation in tunable laser resonator design in the TSL-550 results in lower optical ASE for extraordinarily high signal-to-noise ratio of over 90dB/0.1nm, while maintaining a high output power of over +10dBm. The TSL-550 features key advances in testing speed, resolution, accuracy and dynamic range, raising confidence and lowering costs of component verification. Equipped as standard with fine tuning and coherence control, the TSL-550 is fully programmable, making it a must have tool for precision optical testing. Recent innovation in photonic technology has expanded the requirements for tunable lasers for component testing. Advances in silicon photonics, ROADM (reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers) designs and thin film coatings require test equipment that can characterize multi-port systems, steep filter transfer functions and high extinction ratio devices. The TSL-550 addresses these needs, in addition to improved production inspection throughput by doubling the scan repetition rate over conventional lasers. Santec also makes a suite of optical test instrumentation that when combined with the TSL- 550 provides turnkey solutions for measurement of WDL and PDL. TSL-550, Santec’s new tunable laser Tunable lasers are an integral part of optical test systems to measure
The screw-on design can be implemented into new or existing test systems, accommodating up to 72 fibres and can be used with all OptoTest 1mm and 3mm detector designs. The detector- mountable OP-SPHR requires no calibration, significantly reducing maintenance and cost. Stand 512
OPTOKON showcase new OTDR
OPTOKON will launch a new OTDR , mini mower meter and light source, at this year’s ECOC. The new PM-215 series provides an enhanced display, with backlight function and utilises Bluetooth wireless and USB control, enabling measurements to be taken and used in Android smartphone applications. STAND 742 6000n all-optical protection services switch, from Polatis All-optical switch specialist Polatis has launched the Polatis 6000n Protection Services Switch (PSS) for protection against fibre layer network failure. The PSS is designed to be a compact and cost- effective alternative to the 1+1 protection switch modules used in multiservice provisioning platforms to create redundant network paths for wavelength and dark fibre services.
The PSS is based on Polatis’ DirectLight all-optical switch technology. Switch and restoration times are better than 30ms even with simultaneous events on all 16 paths, which ensures that higher layer network equipment will not experience service interruption due to fibre line degradation or failure.

The TSL-550 models cover the tuning range 1260-1680nm and is available in two versions: Type A, the standard, cost effective version includes a wavelength meter with +/-30pm wavelength accuracy while Type C features an absolute wavelength accuracy of less than 5pm. STAND 335
