WaveMakers® – Programmable Spectrum Synthesizers

Generate arbitrary optical spectral shapes with FWHM widths as narrow as 10 GHz and with slopes to 600 dB/nm, with a range of programming options.

The WaveMaker® family are programmable optical spectrum synthesizers which allow generation of arbitrary spectral shapes. Models are available for coverage of C-, Super-C and the C+L Band with optical output power levels of up to 20 dBm. The WaveMaker 4000A also supports the addition of signals from external sources, such as modulated channels.

WaveMaker®

Ideal for testing environments, the WaveMaker® family includes a WaveShaper engine and a host of programming options, including API, GUI or a spectrum definition file. In case of the WaveMaker 4000A, users can add signals such as modulated channels.
