VDL-001 Fiber Optic Delay Line

Product information "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 dB

The 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.

VDL-002 Fiber Optic Delay Line
VDL-002 Fiber Optic Delay Line

840-1650 nm; Delay Range 0-250 ps; RL 55 dB; Fiber Type SMF-28, HI780, HI1060, PM Panda; IL 1.0 dB; PDL 0.1 dBLunas’ VDL-002 variable fiber optic delay line module is approximately half the volume of the VDL-001 unit . Path length of the VDL-002 delay line is up to 250 ps, compared to the maximum delay of 1,200 ps in the larger VDL-001.A single VDL-002 device can be used for any data rate, simplifying inventory management. With a footprint of only 78 × 22 × 15 mm for a delay range of 100 ps, the device can be conveniently integrated into network modules, test instruments and OCT equipment for precision optical path length control or timing alignment.An internal mirror can be installed to cause light to double pass the device, doubling the delay range. The patent-pending design makes hermetically sealed packaging possible and enables Telcordia qualification when required.Finally, a locking mechanism is provided for locking the delay at a permanent position. The VDL-002 generally comes with single mode (SM) or polarization maintaining (PM) fiber pigtails per customer requirement.Key Features:Compact Size: 56/80 × 37 × 18 mmInsertion Loss (IL): 1.0 dB NominalVariation of Insertion Loss: ±0.3 dB Over Entire RangeFlexible OptionsOperating Wavelength: 840, 1060, 1310, 1550, 1260 to 1650 nmOptical Delay Range: 0 to 100 ps (3 cm), 0 to 250 ps (7.5 cm) ContinuousInternal Mirror Option for Doubling the RangeDelay Stability: 0.15 psZero Point Delay Offset: 180 psPolarization Dependent Loss (PDL): 0.1 dB (SM Model)Return Loss (RL): 55 dBExtinction Ratio: >18 dB (PM Model)Optical Power Damage Threshold: 300 mWFiber Type: SMF-28, HI780, HI1060, PM PandaApplications: Coherent Detection Systems; Optical Time Division Multiplexing (OTDM); Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT); Optical Interferometry; Optical Fourier Spectrum Analysis; Replacement for Variable RF Phase Shifters
