Polarization Management and Emulation
Products
-
Paddles (Set Polarization) - Full polarization control by rotating any of the 5 electro-optic 1⁄4-wave plates to achieve the desired SOP setting with high accuracy, repeatability and resolution.
-
Scrambler - Uniform polarization scrambling with full Poincaré Sphere coverage and user-selectable Rayleigh distribution scrambling rates.
-
Depolarizer - A single-speed, ultrafast random scrambling mode to reduce the degree of polarization (DOP) of the measured signal or to introduce an extremely fast ΔSOP Impulses for lightning simulation and loop testbeds.
-
Spinner - Superfast SOP rotations/scrambling up to 940,000 rad/sec for characterizing the new generation coherent PM-QPSK transceivers.
-
Tracker - Fast, robust, and endless polarization tracking with no dropouts or ‘glitches’.
-
Acquirer - Acquirer is the automated ‘smart’ paddles mode to drive the SOP to maximize or minimize a feedback signal.
