N7782B

Agilent N7782B PER Analyzer and N7783B Thermal Cycling Unit Data Sheet Key Benefits Accurate PER-measurement up to 50 dB Real-time display Easy-to-use: Reliable results independent of operator skill set Swept-wavelength and heating/stretching method available Measurement of the PER versus wavelength Fast/slow axis detection Instruments available for 850 nm up to 1640 nm fixed wavelength sources at 850 nm/1310 nm/1550 nm available. Introduction Agilent’s N7782B Series of polarization extinction ratio (PER) Analyzers has been designed for high speed and highly accurate testing of PER in PM fibers. The polarimetric measurement principle guarantees reliable measurements of PER values of up to 50 dB. The real time measurement capability in combination with automation interfaces makes this unit ideally suited for integration in manufacturing systems, for example pig-tailing stations for laser diodes and planar wave guide components. Analog interfaces are provided for integration of the system in control loop applications. Internal www.DataSheet4U.com Applications Laser diode PMF pig-tailing Alignment of the PM fiber during the pig-tailing process is supported by real-time display of the PER and the optical power. Characterization of PMF cross-coupling Polarization crosstalk in a PM fiber is measured and displayed as PER. PM splice characterization PMF splicing In order to support the alignment during the splicing process of PM fibers the Agilent N7782B provides real...
