PDL5 User Manual

The small amount of reflections that BR0 represent can be polarization sensitive, 
and  multiple  reflections  can  cause  interference  effects  that  can  make  the 
reflections very sensitive to temperature.  

NOTE:  To  ensure  accurate  backreflection  measurements  below  -65  dB, 
perform the BR

0

 measurement at least once per shift. 

The measured backreflection is also affected by losses that can occur between 
the  meter  and  the  DUT.    To  compensate  for  these  losses,  measure  the  total 
amount of loss between the output of the measurement hybrid jumper and the 
input of the DUT (see “LOSS AND POWER MEASUREMENT” section on page 22), 
double this value and add it to the backreflection value displayed on the meter.   

In the following example, the total loss between the meter and the DUT is 2.0 
dB, and the displayed backreflection is -29 dB: 

BR = -29 dB + (2 x 2.0 dB) = -25 dB 

Absolute accuracy specifications are dependent upon the accuracy of the PDL5 
meter  calibration,  so  a  calibration  verification  needs  to  be  performed 
periodically.    Refer  to  the  “CALIBRATION”  section  on  page  32  for  more 
information. 

Polarization  Dependent  Loss  (PDL),  Loss  and  Power 
Measurements 

Set-Up for PDL, Loss and Power Measurements 

To prepare the meter for PDL, Loss and Power measurements: 

1.

 

Follow the “POWERING UP THE METER” sequence on page 17. 

2.

 

Press the 

 or 

 key to select the required output port. 

3.

 

Clean  the  output  port  on  the  front  of  the  meter  and  the  FC/APC 
connector  of  the  measurement  jumper  (see  the  “CLEANING  THE 
CONNECTOR ENDS” section on page 35). 

4.

 

Connect  the  FC/APC  end  of  the  jumper  to  the  output  port  on  the 
meter.  

NOTE:  Ensure  that  you  are  using  the  measurement  jumper  and  not  the 
calibration jumper, which is labeled as such. 

5.

 

Attach  the  appropriate  detector  adapter  to  the  detector  on  the 
front of the meter. 

6.

 

Connect  the  output  connector  of  the  measurement  jumper  to  the 
detector  adapter.    This  end  of  the  measurement  jumper  is  user-
selected  and  must  be  compatible  with  the  input  connector  of  the 
DUT.
