High-Speed WDM Wavelength Meter
From: Bristol Instruments, Inc.
The model 828B measures the wavelength of CW and modulated WDM lasers at a rate of 1 kHz. This exceptional speed improves the efficiency of testing during the manufacturing process and provides a time resolution of 1 ms to enable the most detailed wavelength characterization of tunable lasers. Wavelength is measured to an accuracy of ± 1 pm, guaranteed by automatic calibration with a built-in wavelength standard.

Universal Fiber Optic Detectors
From: Newport Corporation
The Universal Fiber Optic Sensors use a 1" symmetrical integrating sphere to ensure accurate measurements. The integrating sphere uses a dual detector design, with the wavelength range of 400–1650 nm. FC, ST, LC, and SC fiber adapters included, and plug into the detector’s front port. The rear port is designed to measure light from straight and angle cleaved bare fibers, using Newport’s FP3-FH1 bare fiber holder, which is also included.
