We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "PMD",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Module masters optical dispersion measurement from
JDSU, which we summarised at the time by saying "Plug-in module is claimed as industry's most compact and integrated dispersion solution dedicated to field testing fibre optic networks".
The day before,
we featured the news release Metro network analyser stretches up to 120km from
Exfo Electro-Optical Engineering: "Chromatic dispersion can be characterised with high accuracy from a single fibre end and testing polarisation mode dispersion from a single end is also possible".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Agilent Technologies Europe
concerning its N7781A etc
- take a look at Fibre polarisation put to the test
which says: "Fibre-optic test equipment allows researchers and designers to fully characterise all polarisation-related parameters with unmatched speed and accuracy".
Take a look also at the news release from CIR, Report profiles next network opportunities,
as well as Regulators are easy answer to low-current demands from Ericsson Power Modules,
and Next generation FTTH networks from Vitesse Semiconductor.
