1×3 Polarization-Maintaining Coupler (1310&1550 nm)
The Polarization-Maintaining Coupler is a high-performance 1×3 PM fiber coupler designed for dual wavelengths of 1310nm and 1550nm with a splitting ratio of 33:33:33. Built using fused biconical taper technology, it delivers low excess loss, high extinction ratio, high return loss, and superior environmental stability and reliability. Compliant with Telcordia GR-1209-CORE and GR-1221-CORE standards and RoHS certified, this component is ideal for fiber lasers, fiber sensors, communication systems, test equipment, and polarization-maintaining optical systems. Performance grades: Excess loss ≤0.8dB, (Grade P) / ≤1.0dB, (Grade A); uniformity ≤0.7dB,; extinction ratio ≥17 dB (Grade P) / ≥16 dB (Grade A); return loss ≥50 dB (Grade P) / ≥45 dB (Grade A); directivity ≥50 dB; max power handling 2 W; operating temperature -20 to +70°C; storage temperature -50 to +85°C. Features PM panda fiber with package dimensions Φ3.0×70 mm or Φ3.0×54 mm.
