Aragon Photonics produces the most advanced and versatile High Resolution Optical Spectrum Analyzer, the BOSA. Thanks to our unique optical filtering and full spurious free dynamic range the BOSA achieves reliable measurements avoiding artifacts and undesired effects on your measurements.
Thanks to our strong commitment in R&D, Aragon Photonics offers diferent models of BOSA. With or without internal Tunable Laser Source (TLS), and even with two internal TLS’s in one box, an important product porfolio of high resolution spectrum analysers is available. The covered range includes the O, S, C and L bands, thus being a unique product in the market.

Additional upgrades
Based on our core SBS technology we have also developed unique measurements solutions to provide the most complete characterization of an optical signal available in the market:
- Phase measurement:
Working with a Pulse Pattern Generator (PPG) or with an Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) BOSA Phase option provides time domain information useful to characterize optical modulations fast and reliably. Key features:
- Modulation format independent
- Bandwidth independentEye diagram, constellation
- Time-resolved chirp
- Passive Component Analysis
Including a high-dynamic range (>70 dB) measurement port synchronized with the TLS sweep, you can measure the response of optical filters, Bragg gratings, etc.
- Insertion losses (IL)
- Return losses (RL) Polarization dependent losses (PDL)
- Fast measurement (up to 100 nm/s in BOSA400)
- Spectral Polarimetry
Enables the measurement of the spectrally-resolved state of polarization (SOP). Measure polarization differences between different light sources or spectral components or check the polarization changes within the signal bandwidth.
- Measure PMD on in-service fibers
- Analyze polarization in PICs
- Get PDL measurement of passive components
- Tuneable Laser Output
This option provides access to the internal tunable laser source included in BOSA 400 series and in BOSA Lite+, so that it can be used for additional applications.
- High accuracy & scanning repeatability.
- Output power >0dBm.Trigger synchronization.
- Use our TLS for your own purposes!
Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing Technology
// Patented DAS system
HDAS is a revolutionary patented DAS system developed by Aragon Photonics and the University of Alcalá de Henares “Chirped-pulse phase-OTDR” technology.
HDAS technology can be considered the highest fidelity DAS technology as it provides non-linear and quantitative response, with extremely high sensitivity and an homogeneous performance along the fiber.
