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.

Bit Error Ratio (BER)
Bit Error Ratio (BER) is the ratio of errors caused by the number of bits in a data stream that have been altered due to noise, interference, distoriton or bit synchronization errors.

Flatness
Variation of insertion loss on the passband of an optical device.

Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL)
Polarization Dependent Loss is the difference between the maximum and minimum values of loss due to the variation of the polarization states of light propagating through a device. PDL is expressed in decibels. Calculated by; PDL = 10 log10 (Ep/Es), where EP and ES are the measured diffraction efficiencies for P- and S-plane polarized incident light, respectively.

Return Loss (RL)
Return Loss (RL) is the ratio of the incident power to the reflected power expressed in dB. RL = 10log (Pin/Pback)

Wavelength Resolution
Wavelength Resolution is the smallest possible displayed wavelength increment/decrement.
