Viavi MAP-220C-A

MAP-220C - Compact Modular Chassis

Provides a flexible, more cost-effective compact platform for optical test switching and signal conditioning in optical device and sub-system development and manufacturing.

The MAP-220C two-slot modular chassis is the latest in VIAVI’s broad portfolio of lab and manufacturing test solutions. It’s lower cost design and compact footprint supports optical test switching and signal conditioning applications. Configuration flexibility, such as horizontal or vertical placement, front or rear test access, and side-by-side 19 inch rackability.  It supports our new family of LightDirect modules, starting with the new mOSW series optical switches.

Key Features:

• Two-slot chassis
• Hi-visibility touch-screen interface GUI
• Backward compatible to legacy SB & SC switches
• Front or rear test access to optical interfaces
• Horizontal or vertical chassis placement on bench or in rack
• Interfaces include GPIB, RJ45 Ethernet
• Pop-up front and rear feet w/ bumpers for stacking

Benefits:

• Reduces test station rack space by up to 4x, reducing overhead costs associated w/ floor space, shipping and maintenance
• Reduces chassis costs by up to 40% easing transition to MAP as you retool to enable testing of higher performance optical devices and subsystems
• Flexible test configurations such as front or rear test access and vertical or horizontal chassis orientation enable test setups to match customer test stand specific needs
• Ease of expanding existing setups w/ backward compatible software to SB & SC switches and legacy signal conditioning solutions via GPIB or Ethernet

Applications:

• Lab research & development of active optical devices (e.g. transponders, amplifiers, line cards)
• Manufacturing of active optical devices
• General purpose optical test switching (e.g. passive or active optical device work)
