Product Description

The LCA 500 provides single-scan measurements for testing a wide range of passive components from couplers to specialty fiber and everything in between (Fiber Bragg Gratings, arrayed waveguide gratings, free-space filters, tunable devices, amplifiers, etc.).

The LCA 500 utilizes the software interface of the OVA 5000 with the ability to measure and analyze insertion loss (IL), return loss (RL) and polarization-dependent loss (PDL).
