Anritsu MS9715M

The Anritsu MS9715M is a high-performance optical spectrum analyzer for precise characterization of optical devices and systems in R&D and manufacturing environments. It covers the C-band window (1460–1650 nm) with ±50 pm wavelength accuracy and ±0.4 dB level accuracy, delivering 53 dB dynamic range and 0.1 nm noise resolution. The instrument measures wavelength, optical power, OSNR, channel spacing, gain tilt, gain slope, and full spectrum profiles—essential for WDM system validation and DWDM network monitoring. An internal standard light source enables automatic wavelength calibration to compensate for temperature drift. Dual measurement modes support real-time spectrum analysis and long-term system surveillance, with capacity to log 1000 measurement sets per session. The zoom marker and guide spectrum features enable rapid identification of specific channels across dense wavelength grids. A standard LabVIEW driver facilitates remote control and automated test sequences. Windows-compatible floppy disk storage is built in for data archiving and transfer. The compact, lightweight design withstands operational vibration and shock. Operating window is 0–30 °C for specified measurement accuracy.
