Luna’s
Fiber Optic Switches (FOS) 008 and 036
are
cost-effective 1xN optical switches with impressive
performance and flexibility. With low insertion loss,
low wavelength dependent loss and flexible port
count, manufacturers can perform high-port count
optical test and measurement including DWDM
channel testing and multiplexed optical sensing with
reduced time and cost. The FOS can be integrated
with Luna’s other industry-leading test and
measurement products to enable scalable integr a ted
testing for the manufacturing floor. Luna’s FOS is the
only switch certified and tested to be fully
specification compatible with our award-winning line
of fiber test products . Not all fiber switches are the
same. Rely on our experience.

APPLICATIONS
Multi-port DWDM Component Testing
Luna’s’
example where multiplexed testing can save both time and expense is in manu factur ing tes t of mo dern , multichannel dense wavelength division multip lexe d (DWDM) fiber compo nents and systems . Typ ical comp on ents ,
found in a DWDM architecture, inc lud e both static and dynamically controlled mu lti-channel filters (AWGs,
ROADMS, etc.). As bandwidth inc reases , so do the test ing requ ireme n ts for th ese backbon e componen ts .
Typical testing requirements for DWDM components include Insertion Loss, Polarization Dependant Loss,
Chromatic Dispersion, Group Delay Ripple and Polarization Mode Dispersion, which are all measured with
high wavelength resolution (< 10pm) over the en tire commun icat ions band (e.g . 1525 nm – 1565 nm) . Fo r
multi-port components, this may lead to hours of tes ting for a s ingle compon ent.
Luna’s solution is simp le: Integrate our
Optical Vector Analyzer
036 using our
easy introduction of multiport testing into
any environment. Stable, configur ab le
and fast, this combination enables testing
a high-port count DWDM for all
parameters in a mat t er of minutes.

Fast and Accurate Fiber SKEW Measurement
Skew measurements can now be made on multimode and/or singlemode fiber cables and ribbons using Luna’s user-friend l y
Developer Kit
Reflectometer
measurement capability relies on the OBR’s ability to measure
minute refl ec t i on s ( < - 1 3 5 dB) out to 2 kil om e te r s w i th zero dead
zone and indus try-leadi n g sub-millimeter spatial resolution.
Skew is determined by making a single-ended time-of-fligh t
measurement of each fiber in a cable strand and computin g the
path differential, which is then graphically displayed to the user.
With the single click of a button, this can all be achieved in less
than one minute. Additionally, with the same measurement, the
user can apply OBR software to ols to characterize the disper sion of
each fiber in the cable strand , a nd reduce overall test time and th e
duplication of equipment.
