Polarization maintaining couplers (PMC) combine or split the incoming light and maintain their polarization states at the output ports.

Two types of PM couplers are available, micro-optical sub-components based or PM fused fiber based. The PM couplers have central wavelengths at 1310nm, 1550nm or 1064nm. Their coupling ratios can be specified with high accuracy. Two configurations, 1x2 or 2x2, are available.

Features

  • High extinction ratio
  • Low excess loss
  • Accurate tapping and splitting ratios
  • High stability and reliability
  • Epoxy-free optical path

Applications

  • Fiber optical networks
  • Power monitoring
  • Fiber sensors
