Bandwidth-Variable Tunable Filter <BVF-200HPCL>
|
BVF-200HPCL is the high power version of the C+L-band extended
model for the popular BVF-200 series of advance tunable optical filters
based on our flexible optical filter tuning technologies. The filter has
a power tolerance up to 2W with center wavelength tunable over 1530nm -
1610nm, and an independently tunable passband bandwidth from 0.1nm to 15nm.
The filter response of the BVF-200HPCL is an ideal flat-top profile with
extremely sharp roll-off at the filter edges, together with a strong out-of-band
suppression of typically 50dB readily achievable.
The BVF-200HPCL allows very narrowband filtering down to 0.1nm
which is ideal for stringent filtering of 10Gb/s DWDM signals, and a wideband
operation upto 15nm (larger bandwidths are possible as a custom option).
It also exhibits an extremely low chromatic dispersion within its passband
of <1ps/nm which is important for filtering of short optical pulses
at large bandwidth setting. All these properties makes the BVF-200HPCL
an ideal and flexible tunable filter for various demanding applications
requiring full tunability in optical filtering.
