PSM-002 Polarization Scrambler
Product information "PSM-002 Polarization Scrambler"
980-1650 nm; IL <0.05, <0.6 dB; PDL 0.01 dB; PMD <0.05 ps; DOP 2.5%; Scrambling Rate 0.01-20,000 Points/s; RL >65 dB
General Photonics’ PSM-002 miniature polarization scrambler module is specially designed for integration into sensor and communication systems that need to work in extreme environmental conditions. The PSM-002 module uses General Photonics’ patented fiber squeezer technology to effectively randomize polarization states.
Unlike that of the PCD-005 , the scrambling rate of this miniature scrambler is user-selectable via an RS-232 command. Another attractive feature is that the scrambling function can also be enabled and disabled by a TTL trigger signal.
The PSM-002 polarization scrambler is available either as a standard board for lab applications or fully enclosed in a watertight enclosure for applications in high-humidity environments. It also comes in either standard or extended temperature versions.
