Overview
The Optical Spectrum Analyzer (OSA) modules complement the Fiber Driver™ DWDM transport solution by providing
real-time optical performance analysis for any DWDM aggregated optical link. Each single-slot module operates as a
standalone device or as a fully integrated and managed Fiber Driver system component.
The modules provide the optical channel monitoring functionality of an advanced OSA. They monitor signal status and
deliver precise optical performance information including wavelength, frequency, signal power, and estimated optical
signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) for each individual wavelength channel in an optically multiplexed C-Band DWDM link.
These parameters are important for the proper evaluation, deployment, management, and maintenance of optical
transports systems.
When integrated in a managed Fiber Driver system, the EM316LNXNM-OT Fiber Driver network manager (NM) provides full
administrative access to the OSA spectrum analysis information. The NM interfaces create secure local serial and remote
Ethernet connections for complete management access to the OSA analysis data through either a text command line or
graphically through MRV’s MegaVision Pro®.
