The Agilent 81910A enables exhaustive analysis of advanced photonic devices, covering all physical properties relevant to DWDM components in a single solution:

Features:

• Simultaneous all-optical measurement of loss (IL) / return loss (RL), polarization dependent loss (PDL), group delay (GD) and different group delay (DGD)
• Display of chromatic dispersion (CD) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD)
• Simultaneous transmission and reflection measurement
• All measurements made in swept-wavelength mode for shortest test time at picometer wavelength resolution
• Accurate loss and GD results by calculation from the true average of their polarization dependency
• The unique combination of Mueller Matrix method for loss measurement and Jones matrix method for interferometric dispersion measurement yields best accuracies in all axes
