Measuring PMD the Fast Way PMD represents a significant danger to both legacy and newly deployed networks. And as systems of 10 Gb/s and faster develop, PMD concern and awareness continue to grow. EXFO’s FTB-5500B PMD Analyzer helps you get ahead in the field. Whether you need to verify the capacity of legacy fiber or maintain a network, the modular FTB-5500B is fast, reliable, and ready to go.

Second-Order PMD Particularly important in multichannel transmission, second-order PMD is derived from the measured PMD value. EXFO’s software provides second-order PMD delay and coefficient values for telecom fibers. These values allow you to characterize fibers and cables more precisely than simple PMD and better control the transmission quality of high-speed systems.
