 EXFO FTB-5240B Optical Spectrum Analyzer Module
With the increasing sophistication of communication networks comes the need for equally powerful test and measurement equipment designed to meet the challenges of DWDM. Whether testing involves manufacturing, installing and commissioning network fiber, or managing, maintaining, monitoring and troubleshooting performance elements, EXFO?s FTB-5240 and FTB-5240B Optical Spectrum Analyzers (OSAs) are ready to handle any situation. In addition, the FTB-5240B OSA gives you the best of two worlds: the impressive specifications of a lab-quality instrument in a state-of-the-art, field-ready modular unit for fast, accurate and efficient fiber characterization.

Multitasking
The FTB-400 Universal Test System offers rapid, powerful multitasking with simultaneous acquisitions and post-processing. Combine up to seven single-slot field-interchangeable modules for hundreds of versatile combinations.

Combine the 3-slot FTB-5240 or FTB-5240B OSA and the 3-slot FTB-5320 Multi-Wavelength Meter in the FTB-400 UTS to certify signal quality by characterizing the entire DWDM network. Take advantage of the OSA?s high OSNR, power accuracy and dynamic range combined with the multi-wavelength meter?s high wavelength accuracy, in one single instrument.

Ruggedness and Optical Performance
Ready for the challenges of DWDM, the FTB-5240 or FTB-5240B OSAs are on the cutting edge of fiber-optic testing equipment. Of all the OSAs available with high-end specifications, EXFO has the only portable ones; and of all the portable OSAs, the FTB-5240B has the best specifications.

The ToolBox Advantage
EXFO?s exclusive ToolBox software suite runs the test module applications on the FTB-400 Universal Test System. Easy-to-read graphics and clear instructions simplify testing and increase productivity in the field. All applications supported by the FTB-400 have a common graphical user interface.

One-Button Testing
Simplify testing and stay on schedule with one-button testing and the FTB-5240?s integrated software. If your deadline is tomorrow, the last thing you need is software that will slow you down. Turn on the unit and the last settings are ready for DWDM system characterization. Press Start. Within seconds, you receive your data.

EXFO?s optical spectrum analyzer software suits all experience levels, from first-time users to DWDM experts. An experienced user can adjust default settings and override the Auto mode to fine-tune an acquisition or concentrate on a specific parameter.

User-Adapted Interface
Tailor EXFO's optical spectrum analyzer software to your individual work needs. Customize the results table to report only the parameters of interest. Define the columns in the results table to match your specific report needs. Set up all report parameters before testing begins.

DWDM System Analysis
Analyze systems with up to 512 channels in DWDM testing mode. View trace ID information, including all parameters in the active measurement, in the report window. Use tabs to gain quick access to functions and test results.

• Results tab: speed up reporting with this complete table of results.
• Measurements tab: isolate trace details using a set of markers and zoom functions.
• Alarm tab: track system behavior through a table of threshold alarm details.

Adjustable Scanning Range
Thanks to an adjustable wavelength scanning range, the FTB-5240 and FTB-5240B OSAs let test operators focus on a specific band. The result? Improved acquisition time and resolution. EXFO's OSA covers all telco bands and all potential optical supervisory channels (OSCs).

Sharp Resolution Bandwidth
The FTB-5240B characterizes systems with 25 GHz, 50 GHz or 100 GHz channel spacing down to a wavelength uncertainty of ± 0.030 nm. The FTB-5240B?s typical resolution bandwidth of 0.033 nm allows the detection of very closely spaced channels, critical in DWDM testing. Wavelength uncertainty is assured with the internal reference and can reach ± 15 pm with external calibration.

Automated Network Component Testing
The step-by-step procedure from the Application tab guides you through testing for a variety of network component types. Results are then displayed in a table customized for each application. The automated process includes assigned templates for the following frequent tests:

• EDFA
• Spectral Transmittance
• DFB Lasers
• Trace Comparison

Monitoring Optical Performance
Set upper and lower thresholds for power, wavelength as well as OSNR thresholds for every channel in the system. When limits are exceeded, the software generates, registers and tabulates alarms.

Clear-Cut Results, Quick
View a complete table of measurement data by accessing the Results tab. Default parameters are channel ID, central wavelength, peak power, and OSNR. You can also customize the table to focus on specific parameters.

Features:

• Powerful DWDM Specifications: With excellent ORR, resolution bandwidth, wavelength range and dynamic range, the FTB-5240 OSA provides flexibility and power. With even better ORR and high resolution, the FTB-5240B is ready for the next generation of ultra dense WDM.
• Easy to Use: One-button operation. Automated functions are accessed through a simple, intuitive touchscreen interface. The graphical user interface provides easy access to menus and functions.
• Rugged Portability: Housed in a tough, lightweight magnesium shell and rubber-bumpered FTB-400 UTS, EXFO?s OSA will survive bumps and drops in the field or from a lab bench
• Best-in-Class ORR Option: The new FTB-5240B option provides unmatched accuracy for OSNR measurements, thanks to the best ORR in the industry: up to 40 dBc at 0.1 nm, 50 dBc at 0.2 nm and 55 dBc at 0.4 nm
• Internal Calibration: The new FTB-5240B has an internal reference light source that maintains wavelength uncertainty at ± 30 pm in the C+L band
• External Calibration: Use an external source to recalibrate your OSA prior to test sessions and achieve wavelength uncertainty as good as ± 15 pm in the C+L band.
