The TDCMB-C050-F from indie is a Dispersion Compensation Module that has an operation bandwidth of up to 45 GHz. It has a dispersion range of ± 1200 ps/nm and dispersion resolution of 5 ps/nm. This dispersion compensation module has an insertion loss below 5 dB and a phase ripple standard deviation of less than 0.1 rad. It delivers precise, dynamic emulation and compensation of chromatic dispersion for any optical channel.

The TDCMB-C050-F is RoHS compliant and can be controlled via an RS-232 interface. It requires a DC supply voltage of 90 V - 250 V and consumes 71 W of power. This dispersion compensation module is available in a module that measures 225 mm x 203 mm x 45 mm and is ideal for the optimization & testing of coherent & PAM4 transceivers, discrete-variable quantum key distribution (DV-QKD) & entanglement-based QKD system applications.
