(VIAVI) (NASDAQ: VIAV) today introduced new test and measurement offerings for optical lab, production and manufacturing environments, enhancing the industry's most complete line of photonic test modules.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nAs optical network data rates per wavelength are reaching limits, component and network equipment manufacturers (NEMs) are challenged to push the boundaries of innovation in infrastructure design. New solutions from VIAVI are critical for engineers that are designing and manufacturing these new technologies to address the most pressing problems facing service providers — ranging from 400G+ coherent modules, integrated silicon photonics, and ROADM components to accelerated fiber connectivity demand for PON, 5G and hyperscale data center networks.\nVIAVI has released six major enhancements to the LightDirectTM family of modules for their award-winning MAP-300 test platform, which was introduced last year, with specific focus on supporting coherent module and silicon photonics test applications.\nNew high power, C+L band, continuously tunable laser module, the mTLS-C1, the most compact on the market for its performance class. Six new CW source types added to mSRC-C2 supporting all telecom telemetry wavelengths and critical new O-band additions, with both 1310nm DFB and high-power O-band broadband SLED now supported. New variable back reflection module, the mVBR-C1, to support the requirements of the recent OIF specification for 400G-ZR. Two new variants of the mPCX-C1, a full O-band version and a high-speed polarization scrambler, for manufacturing applications requiring only simple polarization scrambling. Significant feature enhancements to the mVOA-C1 module to support hardware triggers for LOS calibration, millisecond resolution disruption test modes, and new power control modes using external Optical Power Meters (OPMs). A new MPO and high-power integrating sphere for the mOPM-C1 along with the first release of OPMScope on MAP-300, converting a chassis of power meters into a powerful multi-channel logging and transient capture system.VIAVI is releasing three new fiber connectivity manufacturing soluti...
