JDSU Adds DWDM and CWDM Fiber Analysis Module

JDSU introduced a new CWDM module for its T-BERD and MTS-8000 platform. The module design is the first of its kind to incorporate three unique test processes without disengaging from the fiber being analyzed. The new functions include polarization mode dispersion (PMD), the analytic process that is at the heart of fiber characterization and helps carriers identify fibers with a greater capacity than others to carry data. PMD enables the additional features available in the module, spectral attenuation profile (AP) and CWDM and DWDM channel analysis capabilities.



"CWDM transmission is becoming a key delivery system for triple-play services due to its inherent ability to drive cost savings," said Enzo di Luigi, general manager of JDSU's fiber optics Test and Measurement group. "The JDSU T-BERD/MTS-8000 not only enables CWDM, but also DWDM and PMD, providing a truly all-in-one solution that is both capex- and opex-friendly."http://www.jdsu.com
