Hp / Agilent 8151A Optical Pulse Power Meter <br> Pea

Optical Pulse Power Meter
Peak and average power measurements
O/E transducer capability
Enables the user to accurately determine upper and lower peak power levels
Instrument's transducer has a frequency range of 250MHz, and outputs an electrical signal which corresponds directly to the optical input waveform
The HP 8151A cannot be operated without an optical head. All heads carry interface adapters for fiber connectors and bare fibers.
