Keysight Agilent N7782B PER Analyzer

Keysight Technologies N7782B Series of polarization extinction ratio (PER) Analyzers has been designed for high speed and highly accurate testing of PER in PM fibers. The polarimetric measurement principle guarantees reliable measurements of PER values of up to 50 dB. The real time measurement capability in combination with automation interfaces makes this unit ideally suited for integration in manufacturing systems, for example pig tailing stations for laser diodes and planar wave guide components. Analog interfaces are provided for integration of the system in control loop applications.

Key Features:

• Accurate PER-measurement up to 50 dB.
• Real-time display.
• Easy-to-use: reliable results independent of operator skill set.
• Swept-wavelength and heating/stretching method available.
• Measurement of the PER versus wavelength.
• Fast/slow axis detection.
• Instruments available for 1260 nm up to 1640 nm.
• Internal fixed wavelength sources available at 1310 nm and 1550 nm.

 Applications:

Laser diode PMF pig-tailing

Alignment of the PM fiber during the pig-tailing process is supported by real-time display of the PER and the optical power.

PMF splicing

In order to support the alignment during the splicing process of PM fibers the Keysight N7782B provides real time display of the optical power and of the angular misalignment of the two fibers.

PM component characterization

Measurement of the PER on PM components like fiber polarizers, PMF couplers, PMF splitters, etc.

Characterization of PMF cross-coupling

Polarization cross talk in a PM fiber is measured and displayed as PER.

PM splice characterization

The angular misalignment of a PM splice can be measured in a non-destructive way. Even multiple splices in a chain can be characterized independently.Keysight’s software package includes drivers for most of the tunable laser sources commonly used in industry.
