The KCT-2100, Passive Fiberoptics Component Test System, measures components with up to 32 channels or multiple devices with a total of 32 channels. Often used with an original configuration of four or eight channels, additional channels are easily added with plug-in receiver modules. Advanced automation concepts, developed by MRS, minimize connection and disconnection time of the device under test.

Production mode software, written in C++ and running under Windows™ 2000, controls all of the tester functions from start to finish. A Test Wizard allows easy configuration of the test sequence through a drop and drag technique. This step by step approach to developing test sequences offers a systematic test procedure that ensures accurate and repeatable results. Numerous process control oriented features make the task of DWDM component characterization a simple one.

Engineering mode software allows comprehensive testing of devices under development. Test parameters can be set in either engineering or production mode for use in high volume production. Security access routines protect test parameters by providing user defined levels of access for changing test parameters, standard values, and threshold levels. The KCT-2100 is also fully compatible with automation workcell control requirements.
