| Product | OSICS multifunction platform |
| Platform type | Modular optical test platform |
| Key features | Cost-effective multifunction modular platform; hosts up to 8 modules; large choice of pluggable light sources or passive optical modules; complete remote control including GPIB |
| Compatible optical modules | All OSICS pluggable light sources and passive optical modules for fiber-optic component and system tests in R&D labs and 24/7 manufacturing environments, particularly for DWDM system evaluation |
| Mainframe capacity | Can host up to eight pluggable modules that can be mixed and matched for custom applications and controlled remotely and individually for easy automation |
| Front panel | Display and rotary knob for navigation between module tabs and fast setup and control of parameter values; all module parameters displayed simultaneously in the main tab and updated in real time during normal operation |
| Rear panel – remote operation connectors | USB-B for RS 232 communication; GPIB for IEEE 488 communication; SubD-9 for interlock |
| Rear panel – synchronization and external modulation | 18 BNC connectors for synchronization of the mainframe and application of an external modulation signal to the mainframe |
| Per-module monitoring and modulation | Two BNC connectors per module: one for monitoring power, current and temperature, and one for analog modulation output signal (operational when supported by the module) |
| Number of slots | 8 |
| Supported pluggable modules | All OSICS modules in any combination |
| Power supply | 100–240 V AC |
| Power supply frequency | 50–60 Hz |
| Maximum input current | 5 A rms |
| Control panel | 5.5 inch screen, ON/OFF and control buttons |
| Remote control interfaces | GPIB (IEEE 488) and USB-B communication |
| Analog monitoring | Multi-purpose BNC output for current, power or temperature monitoring of each pluggable module |
| Modulation | Input: external TTL modulation (mod. in BNC connector); internal TTL modulation (on-board oscillator). Output: Synchro BNC connector |
| Dimensions (W × D × H) | 448 mm × 145 mm × 387 mm (17 ⅝ in × 5 ¾ in × 15 ¼ in) |
