The Anritsu MU150031C is an optical 10G transmit module that functions as an electro-optical converter for Anritsu MP1570A and MP1570A/A1 network analyzers. This plug-in unit converts electrical signals into high-power optical output, enabling direct characterization of optical components and systems at 10 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps transmission rates. The module delivers +2 dBm ±2 dB optical power across the 1525 to 1565 nm window, supporting extended transmission paths and long-haul optical testing scenarios. Its high-power output makes it suitable for optical amplifier validation, attenuator characterization, and transceiver module qualification in both R&D and manufacturing environments.
