San Jose, CA--At CLEO 2010, Laser Focus World interviewed General Photonics (Chino, CA), one of 3 companies receiving a 2010 CLEO/Laser Focus World Innovation Award Honorable Mention, about their "PMDPro Polarization Mode Dispersion analyzer for Communications Networks."

The PMDPro can deterministically generate precise first-order PMD up to 180 ps and second-order PMD up to 8100 ps-squared in as fast as 1 ms. Its automatic polarization optimization function simplifies PMD tolerance testing of components and systems. These capabilities are needed to meet the increasing challenge posed by PMD effects as communications systems increase in speed from 10 Gbps to 40 and 100 Gbps and beyond. --Posted by Gail Overton; [email protected]; www.laserfocusworld.com
