Polarization Beam Combiner or Splitter - 1310/1480/1550/1064nm

Polarization maintaining beam combiner has two PM fiber inputs with orthogonal polarization states. By combining the two polarization states, the output power can be used in some polarization sensitive systems, such as optical fiber Raman amplifiers. Output fiber is single mode fiber or PM fiber. This device handles 500mW to 2W (optional, upon request) CW optical power. Polarization maintaining beam splitter is an 1x2 device, which splits the input light into two outputs. The output fibers are PM fibers, and the power of each port is determined by the power of two orthogonal polarization states. Output light is linearly polarized.

Features:

• Low insertion loss
• High extinction ratio
• High power handling (up to 2W, upon request)
• Epoxy-free optical path

Applications:

• EDFA
• Optical Raman fiber amplifier
