DDL-650-11 Differential Polarization Delay Lines

Product information "DDL-650-11 Differential Polarization Delay Lines"

Varies Delay Between Polarization States; Delay Range ±50 ps; Delay Resolution 0.0027 ps; Return Loss -40, -50, -60 dB; Max. Insertion Loss 1.2 dB

OZ Optics’ DDL-650-11 differential polarization delay lines represent the next stage in controlling polarization mode dispersion in optical networks. The devices split the light within a fiber into orthogonal polarizations, and then actively vary the time that one polarization travels compared to the other polarization before combining the two polarizations together again.

With this technique, one can introduce up to ±50 ps of optical delay in a system. The resolution of the DDL-650-11 differential polarization delay lines is better than 0.003 ps, thus providing a high degree of control. The devices are easily controlled by a computer via an RS-232 interface. Home and end position sensors allow easy monitoring of the device status and prevent any potential damage to the device.

VDL-001 Fiber Optic Delay Line
840-1650 nm; Delay Range 0-1,200 ps; RL 50 dB; Fiber Type SMF-28, HI780, HI1060, PM Panda; IL 1.0, 1.5 dB; PDL 0.1 dBThe Luna VDL-001 module is a manually controlled variable fiber optic optical delay line. Multiple versions are available with path length of up to 1,200 ps. A low insertion loss and low variation of insertion loss is critical for most applications, and the VDL-001 has less than ±1 dB variation even up to 1,200 ps.The delay line is packaged in a small aluminum box to prevent dust or noxious vapors from contaminating the optical path. The compact, rugged design makes the VDL-001 device ideal for integration in network equipment, test instruments, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) systems for precision optical path length or timing alignment.Key Features:Highest Delay-to-Length RatioOptical Delay: Up to 1,200 psInsertion Loss (IL): 1.0, 1.5 dB TypicalLow Insertion Loss Variation: ±0.3, ±0.5, ±0.7 dBOperating Wavelengths: 840, 1060, 1310, 1550, 1260 to 1650 nmOptical Delay Range: 0 to 330, 0 to 600, 0 to 1200 psReadout Scale Resolution: 0.05 mmPolarization Dependent Loss (PDL): 0.1 dB (SM Model)Return Loss (RL): 50 dBExtinction Ratio: >18 dB (PM Model)Optical Power Damage Threshold: 300 mWFiber Type: SMF-28, HI780, HI1060, PM PandaDimensions: 25.5 x 53 x 107/152 mmApplications: Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Systems; Passive Time Division Multiplexing (TDM); TDM Bit Alignment; Fiber Interferometers
