This unit
The Agilent/Keysight 81614A Fabry-Perot Laser Source Module is a precision optical light source engineered for component characterization and loss measurement in multichannel test platforms. This stabilized Fabry-Perot laser diode delivers consistent output across demanding optical testing applications, including insertion loss, optical return loss, and polarization dependent loss (PDL) measurements. The module exhibits exceptional insensitivity to back reflections, maintaining performance integrity even in high-reflection optical paths.
