Models
The OSA/OCA comes in different models:

The FTB-5230S is an entry-level optical spectrum analyzer that is ideal
for a variety of field applications, including DWDM and CWDM network
commissioning and troubleshooting. The test modes available for your
module are WDM and Drift.

The FTB-5230S-OCA (Optical Channel Analyzer): This model is
designed to measure optical power as a function of wavelength or
frequency. It offers truly portable spectral characterization for CWDM
and DWDM network commissioning.
Typical Applications
You can use your OSA/OCA for the following tasks:

Characterizing channels in the O- to U-band spectra (OSA only)

Troubleshooting and monitoring key parameters on CWDM or DWDM
signals to check system stability

Characterizing all channel spacings, from 50 GHz DWDM to CWDM

Testing high-speed networks (beyond 40 Gbit/s)
