Fiber Cleaver, Electronic, Angled, 80-200 µm

The FK12 Angled Fiber Cleaver produces mirror-like fiber ends with user-selectable cleave angles to minimize back reflections. For many sensitive fiber optic systems, back reflections can induce excessive noise and laser instability. To mitigate this, angle cleaving of fiber end faces frustrates the backward propagation of end face reflections. A properly chosen cleave angle can reduce back reflections to less than -60 dB. The simple, fast and repeatable operation of the FK12 delivers convenience and performance unmatched by angle polishing or index matching schemes for reducing back reflections.
