JDSU MTLG-B1C10 TUNBAL LASER

The JDSU MTLG-B1C10 is a tunable laser module for DWDM system characterization, fiber testing, and optical component validation. Operating across the C-band (1527.60 to 1569.59 nm), it delivers precise wavelength control with ±2 GHz accuracy and stable output power from 7 to 13 dBm. The integral wavelength locker and automatic power control loop ensure reliable performance in lab and manufacturing environments.
