Optical Fiber, Singlemode, 1550-1650 nm, Polyimide Coated, Low Attenuation

The F-SM1500-9/125-P Polyimide Coated Single-Mode Fiber is an all-glass fiber with low attenuation and supports single-mode light propagation for a 1550 - 1650 nm operating wavelength range. This low attenuation, step-index fiber has a uniform core refractive index and a matched-clad profile. It has a 0.13 to 0.15 NA, a 9.0 μm Mode Field Diameter, a 125 μm Cladding Diameter and a 145 μm Coating Diameter. Typical applications include sensors, instrumentation, device pigtailing, and light delivery.

This bare fiber does not include a protective fiber jacket. Standard pricing is per meter. The following volume discount schedule is applied when ordering continuous lengths of optical fiber: 10 - 49 m: 15%, 50 - 99 m: 22%, 100 - 499 m: 25%, and ≥ 500 m: 28%.

Polyimide is a high performance polymer, which can withstand short-term temperatures as high as 400°C and continuous temperatures of 300°C, allowing the fiber to survive in high temperature wells and thermally cured embedding processes.
