Keysight (Agilent) 11896A Lightwave Polarization Controller

The HP 11896A Polarization Controller adjusts polarization and not power. Its optical fiber loop design provides all states of polarization with extremely small optical insertion-loss variations (±0.002 dB) over a wide spectral range (1250 to 1600 nm). This performance combination maximizes measurement accuracy for power-sensitive applications like polarization-dependent loss and gain. This is because the measurement uncertainty contributed by the polarization controller is minimized. Specifications. Operating Wavelength Range: 1250 to 1600 nm. Overall Insertion Loss: <2.0dB. Insertion Loss Variation (with adjustment/rotation): < ± .002 dB (Option 025). Polarization Extinction Ratio: > 40 dB. Polarization Adjustment Resolution: 0.18° (180° /1000 encoder positions). Angular Adjustment Accuracy: Minimum step size, ±0.18°; Greater than minimum step size, ±0.18°. Optical Port Return Loss: > 35 dB. Option 025: One meter fiber extender with FC/PC connector interfaces.

Coherence Length
Average distance over which superimposed waves lose their phase relationships

Linewidth
Linewidth is the width of a spectral line in terms of wavelength, wave number and frequency.

Power Flatness Versus Wavelength
When changing the wavelength at constant power setting and recording the differences between actual and displayed power levels, the power flatness is ± half the span (in dB) between the maximum and the minimum of the measured power levels.

Spectral Width
Spectral Width is the wavelength interval over which the magnitude of all spectral components is equal to or greater than a specified fraction of the magnitude of the component having the maximum value. In optical communications applications, the usual method of specifying spectral width is the full width at half maximum. This is the same convention used in bandwidth, defined as the frequency range where power drops by less than half (at most -3 dB).

Telecom Bands
Optical fiber communications typically operate in a wavelength region corresponding to one of the following Bands. O Band (original): 1260–1360 nm. E Band (extended): 1360–1460 nm. S Band (short wavelengths): 1460–1530 nm. C Band (conventional): 1530–1565 nm. L Band (long wavelengths): 1565–1625 nm. U Band (ultralong wavelengths): 1625–1675 nm
