Product data sheet (pdf)

 

Fiber Control Industries Resonant-Coil Polarization Scrambler converts highly polarized light into light with a scrambled polarization by rapidly modulating the state-of-polarization — creating a time-varying birefringence within the fiber.

 

Typical function generators (± 10 Volts, Z0 = 50 ) provide adequate power for operation near 600 kHz. Optional integrated booster amplifiers extend the range of modulation frequencies up to 1 MHz.

Features:

  • User friendly bench top unit
  • Fully licensed
  • Broad range of modulation frequencies
  • Connectorized input/output
  • Low back-reflection
  • Low insertion loss

Applications:

  • Reduce the effect of of PDL of measurements within optical test-sets
  • Reduce polarization-dependent effects within EDFA based optical transmission systems

Specifications: (optical, line power, physical)
