Sept. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- JDSU today introduced its
c-Series Compact Photonic Tools, a new line of test solutions for
the development and manufacturing of fiber optic connectors and
passive components used in today's network elements. The c-Series
provide an alternative for engineers who require simple,
single-function testers and include the cOPM-A1 Optical Power
Meter, cFPL-A1 Fabry-Perot Light Source, and cORL-A1 Optical Return
Loss Meter. The c-Series is on display this week at ECOC '08 in
Brussels, September 22-24 (booth 233). JDSU c-Series testers are
general purpose, high-performance, entry-level test solutions for
new labs and new engineers entering the industry and small- and
medium-sized connector and patch cord manufacturers. C-Series
testers include a USB interface that makes them an ideal addition
to automated fiber optic manufacturing process tools, with light
sources and power meters providing key feedback required for
robotic and automated assembly equipment. "Today's fiber optic
manufacturing market requires easier and less expensive test tools
that help bring reliable products to market faster," said Gegs
Jones, JDSU fiber optic production and lab testing business unit
manager. "JDSU designed the c-Series as easy-to-use and
cost-effective point solutions without sacrificing performance --
each tester offers accuracy and proprietary test time-reduction
features found in products several times the price." The c-Series
testers, operating independently or in tandem, offer functionality
that addresses a range of key applications from general purpose
lab-based optical measurements to insertion loss and return loss
measurements for FTTx passive components and fiber optic
connectors. About JDSU JDSU (Nasdaq: JDSU; and TSX: JDU) enables
