WDMs for 980/1550 nm, 980/1550 nm, or 1310/1585 nm
Single-mode WDMs are used to separate or combine optical signals at the indicated operating wavelengths, allowing bi-directional communications on a single fiber. WDMs offer high isolation between the two wavelengths with low excess loss. Newport’s WDMs are available for 980/1550, 980/1550 and 1310/1585 nm. These products are used extensively in EDFA applications, to efficiently combine the pump input (980 or 1480 nm) with signals in the 1550 nm transmission window.
Tap couplers for EDFA applications
The single-mode tap coupler (1% coupling) is designed for use in Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFAs), and offer superb insertion loss and wavelength dependence. It is ideal for use as input and output power monitors in applications in power and pre-amplifiers, and repeaters where signal insertion loss minimization and tap ratio wavelength independence are vital.
Rugged Housing and Cabling with FC/UPC of FC/APC Connections Available
A rugged housing consists of a stainless steel outer housing from which 1 m long, 900 µm buffered fibers exit through molded strain relief boots. All standard models come with option of non-terminated, FC/UPC or FC/APC connectors.
