Agilent / HP / Keysight 8509C
8509C Polarization Analyzer
Description
The Agilent 8509C is a Polarization Analyzers that has a 1280 nm to 1640 nm wavelength.
The 8509C lightwave polarization analyzer with L-Band capability has a wide operating range for measuring optical signals and components.
Automatic procedures simplify PMD, PDL and polarization-maintenance fiber launch alignment. For 10 to 40 Gb/s testing, the 8509C measures polarization mode dispersion down to 0.01 ps.
Fast and accurate measurements of the polarization properties of lightwave signals and material will help to develop higher performance lightwave components and systems, and cost effective manufacturing processes.
