DCF optical module
Dispersion Compensation Module (DCM) is designed to fix the form of optical signals that are deformed by chromatic dispersion. In plain terms, it helps correct pulse broadening that builds up as light travels through fiber, especially in long-distance and dense wavelength-division multiplexing. A DCF is a type of fiber that uses negative chromatic dispersion to compensate for the positive dispersion of the transmitting fiber to maintain the original shape of the signal pulse. We also manufacture precision fiber optic coils for SATCOM, military, telecommunications, sensing, laser mode scrambling, and radar calibration applications.
