The tests were conducted using EXFO’s FTB-5700 Single-Ended Dispersion Analyzer; the robustness of the unit was evaluated in terms of its capability to measure PMD on aerial cables under severe vortex-induced oscillations due to steady, low-velocity winds. Measurements were then compared to those obtained using a unit based on the General Interferometric method (GINTY); i.e., EXFO’s FTB-5500B PMD Analyzer.
