Typical Applications
This section provides some examples of typical test configurations that
demonstrate how an Agilent 8159xB Optical Switch module can be used to
achieve test automation, and improve test repeatability.
Selecting a Laser Source
In Figure 132 , an Agilent 81591B 1x2 Optical Switch is used to select one
of two different sources (different wavelengths) as the input to the DUT.
