Call Ask for Chip or Trip The HP 8509B lightwave polarization analyzer system is one of the first systems to offer calibrated polarization measurements of optical signals and components. These new capabilities are provided by innovations in hardware, software, and mathematics. Hardware contributions include a four-diode detection scheme covering 1200 nm to 1600 nm. Single wavelength, 1300 and 1550 nm Fabry-Perot lasers, and an automatic three-state polarization generator are provided within the HP 8509B. External single-wavelength or swept-wavelength sources can also be used. System software delivers an easy-to-understand data display of simultaneous, numeric and graphic formats featuring average power, degree of polarization, Poincare sphere, polarization ellipse, Jones matrix, Stokes parameters, and polarization-maintaining-fiber launch conditions. Mathematical innovation in Jones matrix analysis automate and simplify the measurements of polarization mode dispersion, polarization dependent loss, and polarization reference frames. This unit has the following features: * Automated polarization-mode dispersion measurements * Calibrated, real-time measurements of state and degree of polarization * Fast, automatic measurements of polarization-dependent loss in optical components This unit has the following specififcations: * Wavelength: 1200 to 1600 nm * Input Power: + 10 to -55 dBm * Avg. Measurement Uncertainty: ± 15 % * Degree of Polarization Measurement Uncertainty: * Measurement Rate: >1000 per second * Average Optical Power Output: * Wavelength Accuracy: ± 20 nm This item is in excellent condition, working perfectly, and comes with a 14 Day Guarantee Against DOA.
