Multi-Channel Optical Power Monitor Array

Lightwaves2020's multi-Channel Optical Power Monitor Array (OPMA) is designed for multi-channel optical power monitoring. It consists of an array of 4/8 Miniature Optical Power Monitors (MOPM) packaged in a compact case. Each MOPM integrates a micro-tap and a PIN photodiode into a single mini coaxial package. The OPMA dramatically reduces the footprint requirement and saves board space.
