The VIAVI Solutions / JDSU OWB10002 Optical Workbench Receiver Chassis is a 9-slot modular platform engineered for optical component testing and characterization. It provides a stable housing environment for receiver modules within the SWS2000 and OMNI ecosystems, supporting insertion loss, polarization dependent loss, and return loss measurements. The chassis enables distributed test architecture where a single tunable laser source feeds up to eight independent test stations, optimizing capital deployment across multiple measurement points.
