1 Introducing the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer The FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer is the world’s first combined CD and PMD analyzer doing both measurements from a single end of the fiber. It features a single connector port and software for both type of measurements; CD and PMD are characterized by pressing a single button. This is done without the need for a remote unit or light source.
Introducing the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Module Description Module Description The figure below illustrates the front panel for your Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer SINGLE-ENDED DISPERSION ANALYZER Port Handle FTB-5700 Typical Applications With its dynamic range, level of accuracy and feature set, the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer is a perfect tool for any network manager or technician to perform advance testing of 10 Gbit/s networks or faster, on any fiber length up to 12
Introducing the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Basic FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Operation Basic FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Operation The purpose of the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer unit is to be simple of use, with minimal parameter setting requirements. The parameter most likely to be changed by a user is the fiber type.
Introducing the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Basic FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Operation Once the fiber end event position is found, the unit checks the dynamics and evaluates the wavelength range over which to perform the measurement. It then selects the acquisition conditions and sequence of the measurement before starting the acquisition itself.
Introducing the FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer Conventions Conventions Before using the product described in this manual, you should understand the following conventions: WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
