Datasheet

Overview

The VIAVI MSRC-C23456SLX-M100-MFA is a member of the Multiple Application Platform (MAP) General Purpose Light Source (mSRC-C2) family. It is a standard power Super-Luminescent Light Emitting Diode (SLED) source module covering 1310, 1490, 1550 and 1625 nm. All four wavelengths are multiplexed to one single-mode output with an FC/APC connector.

SLED sources give broadband output at higher power, so they combine features of LEDs and laser sources. The module is TEC stabilized and can run in either constant current or constant power mode. Optical power can be tuned down from maximum. Internal optical isolators remove interference effects caused by external reflections.

Platform

The mSRC is part of the MAP LightDirect module family. It works with all current MAP-300 and MAP-200 chassis, which hold 2, 3 or 8 application modules. The platform has a web-enabled multiuser interface, is LXI compliant and comes with SCPI-based automation drivers and PC-based management tools. A graphical user interface switches between summary and detailed views for laboratory and manufacturing use.

Compliance

When installed in a MAP chassis, the mSRC-C2 module complies with CE, CSA/UL/IEC61010-1 and LXI Class C requirements. It meets the requirements of Class 1M in IEC 60825-1 (2014) and complies with 21 CFR 1040.1 except deviations per Laser Notice No. 50.
