Chromatic dispersion and PMD
A portable dispersion measurement system. Fourth generation FD4 (1988) – FP5000. The device has been improved by applying the latest detection and DSP technologies. Noise levels have been reduced and measurement speed significantly improved. A milestone was the investment in software and the latest version of the Microsoft-based controller, which is compatible with Windows 10. As a result, the FP5000 is simple and pleasant to use.
