UM Fiber Pilot Links[edit]
Purchasing Notes[edit]
Specialty Fiber[edit]
- JDM rejected SM fiber due to polarization mode dispersion problems for kilometric lengths
- JDM concluded we need polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber
- Two kinds of fiber we are considering
1. Corning Panda PM 1550
2. Corning Panda PM dispersion-shifted 1550
Composite Cable Company[edit]
- will include copper wires in a protected cable, along with the specialty fiber
- occfiber.com is currently best bet at $5/meter
Polarization Optics for Visible and H band Tests[edit]
- Analyzer / Polarization Beamsplitter Cubes (need 3).
Melles Griot 255 BS cube works from visible to NIR (400-2000nm) for $581 each. Plus BS cage and rotary mount.
