Installing Hardware Components
To work in high-power mode, you will have to add a switch and an EDFA
to your standard IQS-12004B DWDM Passive Component Test System.
The minimum hardware components required for multipath testing in high
mode are:
³
Tunable laser source (IQS-2600B or IQS-2600CT).
³
Wavelength reference module (IQS-9401).
³
Power meter (IQS-1643T), one or more.
³
The KPS-AMP-C-20 fiber amplifier (EDFA).
³
A high-power GPIB-controlled switch.
I
MPORTANT
In order to be able to control the EDFA, the GPIB address of the
EDFA must be smaller than the GPIB address used for the switch.
C
AUTION
Never insert or remove a module while the controller or expansion
unit is turned on. This will result in immediate and irreparable
damage to both the module and unit.
