Features
Rugged Bulkhead Design
These rugged devices are designed with bulkhead connectors (no fiber pigtails). Without pigtails, these device make handling much easier as users do not need to worry about fragile fibers. We also minimize the fiber length inside the device to nearly eliminate environmental effects.
Superior Performance
These devices feature best in class performance in insertion loss, back reflection, and extinction ratio - all at an attractive price. They have a wide operation bandwidth and high power handling capability as well.
Applications
- EDFA and Raman Amplifiers
- Polarization Division Mux/DeMux
- R & D
- Fiber Sensor Systems
- Fiber Laser Systems
