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.
