Benchtop Couplers and WDMs

Newport’s High-Performance Benchtop Couplers and WDMs feature male bulkhead connectors instead of fragile fiber pigtails. These broadband couplers are offered with FC/PC or FC/APC connectors and are optimized for operation at 1310 nm, 1550 nm or both 1310 and 1550 nm (dual window). A 1310/1550 nm multiplexer is also offered.

Rugged, compact bulkhead design
Free from fragile, easily tangled fiber pigtails
Thermally stable (0.1 dB from -40 to +85 °C)
Easy mounting

Features

Rugged, compact Bulkhead design

Our benchtop couplers incorporate a rugged, encased design utilizing bulkhead connectors rather than loose pigtails to minimize fragile fibers from tangle and excess handling. The lack of fiber pigtails also decreases the optical path delay between the entrance and exit ports, which is an attractive feature for ultra-short pulses and interferometric applications.

1x2 Wavelength Division Multiplier (WDM)

The High-Performance Benchtop Wave Division Multiplexer features male FC/PC bulkhead connectors instead of fragile fiber pigtails. Four strong magnets hold the rugged package securely onto steel surfaces. Two countersunk holes, spaced 1 inch apart and compatible with mounting patterns of optical tables, provide yet another mounting option. The lack of fiber pigtails also decreases the optical path delay between the entrance and exit ports, which is an attractive feature for ultra-short pulses and interferometric applications.

Easy mounting

The units mount easily to optical tables and can withstand frequent handling. Four strong magnets hold the rugged package securely onto steel surfaces. Two countersunk holes, spaced 25.4 mm (1 in.) apart and compatible with mounting patterns of optical tables, provide yet another mounting option.

Thermally stable

Our benchtop couplers utilize the compact bulkhead design and thus minimize internal fiber. Stability is measured at 0.1 dB variation over -40°C to +85°C.
