Tunable optical filters

XTA-50 – Tunable filter with adjustable bandwidth
Electronically controlled. Center wavelength and bandwidth can both be set precisely and independently. Covers all key wavelengths from 1260 nm to 1650 nm and bandwidths from 32 pm (4 GHz) to 5 nm.

Key Features
Adjustable bandwidth flat-top filter
200 nm wavelength range
Models covering all key telecom wavelengths (1260 nm to 1650 nm) and various bandwidths from 32 pm (4 GHz) up to 5 nm (625 GHz)
Ultra-sharp filter edges
High accuracy and repeatability

XTM-50 – Tunable filter with adjustable bandwidth
With the XTM-50 both center wavelength and bandwidth can be independently adjusted. It is manually controlled and versions are available covering all the key telecom wavelengths from 1260 nm to1650 nm and bandwidths from 32 pm (4 GHz) to 5 nm.

Key Features
Adjustable bandwidth flat-top filter
Up to 200 nm wavelength tunability
Ultra-sharp filter edges
High accuracy and repeatability
Narrowest filter—highest selectivity
