PC1600 Lightwave Polarization Controller

PC1600 is the multi channel version of PC1300 Motorized Polarization Controller. In addition to its basic function of adjusting polarization states in multi channels, it also provides convenient save and recall functions.

As a Scanning PC, it provides very powerful auto scan modes with variable scanning speeds. Polarization states can be manipulated by either manual adjustment or remote control (GPIB, RS-232) using two quarterwave plates in each channel of PC1600. Auto scan mode of FIBERPROs Motorized Polarization Controller has been upgraded in LPC. It shows another auto scan mode of four quarter-waveplates with higher polarization extinction ratio when connecting two channels at an advanced speed. PC1600 is an essential tool to complete fiberoptic, multi-channel measurement systems such as WDM/DWDM as well as R&D (such as PMD experiments), and manufacturing.
