NRT-2500 Polarization Control Platform
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Luna NRT-2500 is a versatile Polarization Control Platform, offering multiple built-in polarization control functions for optical transponder, device and sub-system development and manufacturing.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Luna's industry-leading polarization control platform combines an integrated-optic Lithium Niobate (LiNbO3) waveguide polarization-controller device for super-fast polarization response driven by customizable digital signal processors and field programmable gate arrays (DSPs/FPGAs) for full functional flexibility. Together they enable Luna to provide an unprecedented seven polarization operations in one product.
Key Features
- Paddles (Set Polarization) - Full polarization control by rotating any of the 5 electro-optic 1⁄4-wave plates to achieve the desired SOP setting with high accuracy, repeatability and resolution.
- Scrambler - Uniform polarization scrambling with full Poincaré Sphere coverage and user-selectable Rayleigh distribution scrambling rates.
- Depolarizer - A single-speed, ultrafast random scrambling mode to reduce the degree of polarization (DOP) of the measured signal or to introduce an extremely fast ΔSOP Impulses for lightning simulation and loop testbeds.
- Spinner - Superfast SOP rotations/scrambling up to 940,000 rad/sec for characterizing the new generation coherent PM-QPSK transceivers.
- Tracker - Fast, robust, and endless polarization tracking with no dropouts or ‘glitches’.
- Acquirer - Acquirer is the automated ‘smart’ paddles mode to drive the SOP to maximize or minimize a feedback signal.
