content of the table can also be sorted for easier management. For
information on acquisition status (pass/fail)

³

The first column indicates if the data in this row is used to calculate the
final results.

³

Wavelength: indicates the wavelength at which the dispersion has
been calculated.

³

RGD: corresponds to the measured relative group delay.

³

Fitted RGD: corresponds to the relative group delay obtained from the
fitted curve over the measured RGD.

³

RGD Deviation: corresponds to the absolute value between the RGD
and the Fitted RGD.

³

Dispersion (ps/nm): Dispersion value when fiber length is unknown.

³

Dispersion (ps/nm-km): Coefficient of dispersion when fiber length is
known.
