Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the Anritsu MS9702B measure and what are its key specifications?
- The MS9702B is a benchtop optical spectrum analyzer designed to characterize optical signals across a wavelength range of 0.6 µm to 1.75 µm, covering the critical C and L bands used in telecommunications. This instrument delivers up to 70 dB dynamic range with a guaranteed sensitivity of –90 dBm, making it suitable for WDM system verification, component testing, and signal quality assessment. Wavelength accuracy is specified at ±0.1 nm across the 1530–1570 nm region with 0.5–1 nm resolution capability.
- What condition is this MS9702B in and what was verified before listing?
- This unit is listed in used condition and has been functionally tested to confirm core measurement capabilities before sale. We verify power-on operation, display function, and basic wavelength response to ensure the instrument is field-ready. For customers requiring validated performance metrics across the full specification envelope, we offer calibration services separately, starting at $450.
- What calibration options are available for the MS9702B and what does it cover?
- We offer calibration services starting at $450, which typically covers wavelength accuracy verification and power measurement calibration across the operating range of the MS9702B. This service is performed separately from the instrument sale and ensures traceability to NIST standards for critical measurement applications. Contact us directly for turnaround time and detailed scope of work for your specific calibration requirements.
- What interfaces and connectivity options does the MS9702B support?
- The MS9702B features GPIB (IEEE 488) connectivity as its standard remote control interface, enabling integration into automated test systems and network monitoring setups. Power input is universal, accepting 47.5–63 Hz AC at 85–132 Vac or 170–250 Vac, with a maximum power draw of 150 VA. For detailed information about compatible software drivers, control libraries, and legacy-to-modern interface adapters, please contact our technical sales team.
