SOFTWARE CONTROLLABLE
Software control of frequency, power, linewidth, phase noise, and output is available via RS-232 interface. The laser can be
set once and the settings are retained in non-volatile memory or changed during operation.

LASER WITH EVALUATION BOARD
Evaluation board simplifies fiber handling, mechanical andelectrical integration. Connect your power and evaluation
board communicates with software for rapid integration.
