Product Description
Q8163 is a fiber polarization depolarizer launched by Advantest. It is the core supporting equipment for high-precision polarization-dependent loss (PDL) testing in optical communication. It adopts an original polarization variation technology and incorporates 3 fiber-type polarization elements. It can continuously and rapidly change the output polarization state, covering all polarization states, and achieve stable testing under all polarization conditions. With its low insertion loss fluctuation and high reliability design, it can seamlessly collaborate with Q8221 series optical power meters and other equipment, adapting to the automated testing scenarios for the development and mass production of optical communication devices, providing an accurate and efficient testing solution for the polarization-dependent performance evaluation of optical communication systems. It is an indispensable key instrument in the field of optical communication testing.
Characteristics
By using fiber-type polarization elements and an original polarization variation technology, the polarization state switching is highly and continuously fast, ensuring full polarization state coverage and meeting the high-speed measurement requirements of PDL.
The wavelength adaptation range is 1290nm - 1580nm, which is in line with the mainstream application scenarios of the optical communication C band and L band, and is suitable for single-mode fiber testing.
