This part of IEC 61978 applies to fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators, all
exhibiting the following features:
– they are optically passive;
– they have an optical input and an optical output for transmitting optical power;
– the ports are optical fibres or optical fibre connectors;
– they are wavelength sensitive;
– they may be polarization sensitive.
This standard establishes uniform requirements for the passive chromatic dispersion
compensator.
