The Photonetics OM 3646 HE 1560 TLS is a tunable laser source for optical component characterization and system testing in the C-band region. It delivers precise, stable optical signals with narrow linewidth across a 70 nm tuning range, supported by wavelength resolution to 0.01 nm and optical power stability of ±0.01 dB. Manual wavelength adjustment via 14-turn potentiometer ensures repeatable, fine-grained control in laboratory and field environments.
