Polarization-Maintaining Fiber Optic Length Tester
A Polarization-Maintaining Fiber Optic Length Tester measures the optical path length of PM fibers while preserving polarization, often using devices like the OZ Optics OFLM-1000 combined with polarization analyzers for alignment.Fiber Length MeasurementPM fiber length testers, such as the OZ Optics OFLM-1000, provide highly accurate optical path length measurements with resolution better than 2 mm and repeatability under 3 mm for distances up to 500 m . These devices support single-mode, multi-mode, and PM fibers with core diameters of 3.5 µm or larger. Accuracy is typically expressed as ±(0.1% L + 1.5 mm), where L is the fiber length, and depends on the user-set refractive index of the fiber . For very short fibers (
