Our single mode optical couplers work at either 1310nm or 1550nm. They are fabricated using single mode fibers. They have operation bandwidth of 40nm around its central wavelength. The excess loss is very low, no greater than 0.15dB for grade A product and no greater than 0.1dB for premium grade product.

Customers can choose the coupling ratios from the standard values, 50/50, 40/60, 20/80 or 10/90. Also, customers can specify their required coupling ratios.

Different pigtails, package types and connectors can be specified.

Features:

• Low excess loss
• Low PDL
• High stability and reliability

• CATV systems
• Optical communication systems
• Test instruments
