FIBERPRO PS3300 / PS3400 Polarization Scrambler Module FIBERPRO PS3300 / PS3400 Polarization Scrambler Module
The FIBERPRO PS3300 / PS3400 Polarization Scrambler Module is a compact all-fiber optic polarization scrambler module designed for high-speed optical polarization scrambling in fiber optic test, measurement, communications, and sensor applications. It helps reduce the time-averaged degree of polarization by rapidly changing the polarization state of the optical signal.
Based on all-fiber technology, the PS3300 / PS3400 Series offers low insertion loss, low polarization mode dispersion, and back-reflection-free optical performance. These modules are suitable for long-haul optical systems, PMD mitigation, photonic component characterization, and optical sensor test setups where polarization effects must be controlled or averaged during measurement.

Configuration Notes
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| DOP Temperature Note | The DOP value may temporarily increase if the temperature changes quickly. Typical DOP is less than 5% around room temperature from 15°C to 35°C. |
| Warm-up Time | A warm-up time of approximately 30 to 60 minutes in static temperature conditions is required for specified DOP performance. |
| Modulation Frequency | The modulation frequency for each birefringence modulator is fine-tuned at the factory for optimum operation. |
| Frequency Difference | The frequency difference determines the measurement bandwidth limit. |
| Connector Options | The standard configuration is a 900 µm loose tube pigtail without connectors. Other connector types may be specified at the time of order. |
| External Control Note | Both external control methods must not be used at the same time. |
