8164A/B Lightwave Measurement System
Figure 5 The Keysight 8164B Lightwave Measurement System Mainframe
The 8164A/B Lightwave Measurement System mainframe has one large
and four slim module slots.
The system can host:
1 one back-loadable Tunable Laser module, such as the
Keysight 81606A.
2 and up to four front-loadable modules, of any combination of the
following types:
• compact Tunable Laser modules, such as the the Keysight 81960A,
• fixed wavelength Laser Sources, such as the Keysight 81655A,
• DFB Source modules, such as the Keysight 81633A,
• Power Sensors, both dual and single, such as the Keysight 81635A,
• Fast Power Sensor Modules, such as the Keysight 81636B,
• Interface Modules for Optical Heads, such as the Keysight 81618A,
• Return Loss Modules, such as the Keysight 81610A
• Attenuator Modules, such as the Keysight 81570A
• Optical Switch Modules. such as the Keysight 81595B
The front-loadable module slots also support all modules designed for the
8153A Lightwave Multimeter.
