Datasheet

Overview

The MSRC-C23300DF-M100-MFA is a member of the VIAVI Multiple Application Platform (MAP) General Purpose Light Source (mSRC-C2) family. It provides two individual 1310 nm Distributed Feedback (DFB) laser outputs. Each laser is TEC-stabilized and coupled to single-mode fiber with FC/APC connectors.

DFB lasers are narrow-linewidth lasers. A grating defines the output wavelength precisely, and DFB lasers also give good side-band suppression without mode hops. They are typically used where wavelength and power stability matter most. Optical isolators inside the module remove stability effects caused by back reflections from dirty or open connectors. The module can run in constant current or constant power mode and has at least 10 dB of power adjustment range.

Platform

The mSRC is part of the MAP LightDirect module family. These are simple-control, single-function modules that can be combined with optical attenuators, polarization scramblers, power meters and spectrum analyzers in a modular rack-mount or benchtop MAP chassis. The platform is LXI compliant, with SCPI-based automation drivers and PC-based management tools. A graphical user interface offers both summary and detailed module views. The mSRC-C2 is compatible with all current MAP-300 and MAP-200 chassis.
