N7788B optical
component analyzer
Introduction

Keysight Technologies. Inc. pushes the limits of component measurements with the N7788B com-
ponent analyzer. Its proprietary technology is comparable with the well-known Jones-Matrix-Ei-
genanalysis (JME) which is the standard method for measuring polarization mode dispersion (PMD)
or differential group delay (DGD) of optical devices.

For spectral measurements of polarization dependent loss and dispersion, the N7788B is combined
with a Keysight swept-wavelength tunable laser, such as the 81600B or 81960A (not included) and
the Polarization Navigator software application for single-scan measurements. Compared to the
JME, Keysight's powerful single scan technology offers a range of advantages:
