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.

Simple Step-by-Step Measurements
Step-by-step instructions make testing easy and virtually error-free. Both new users and experts can obtain fast, accurate and efficient PMD
measurements with minimal training. The analysis software calculates and displays a fiber’s total PMD and coefficient, as well as the second-order
PMD value and coefficient.

Multiple Measurement Possibilities
Check for long-term stability. Make several PMD measurements over long time periods with the Multiple Measurement mode, and monitor PMD
changes over an extended time.

Data Management Features
Manage all your data with ease. EXFO’s software includes various data management
features, such as automatic file naming and statistical and table management, as well as
custom report generation and batch printing. The software also comes with a file converter,
which transforms PMD files into text files.
