Description
Introducing the SMA500™ Laser Cables, a cutting-edge innovation in fiber optics brought to you by LEONI Fiber Optics, Inc. This advanced connector, first introduced by LOSCH in 2004, represents a significant evolution from the CuSMA™ connector, with enhancements that align closely with the LD-80™ connector. The SMA500™ is meticulously engineered to optimize thermal transfer and heat dissipation, a crucial feature for high-power diode applications. This innovation empowers laser manufacturers to push the boundaries of power capabilities through SMA type connectors, thanks to its ability to handle higher diode powers, fiber core overfilling, and output end back-reflections.
The SMA500™ Laser Cables are crafted with a fluorine doped silica core fiber featuring a 0.22 NA as standard, ensuring superior performance and reliability. The durable and flexible steel armored cable, commonly known as squarelock, is available in outer diameters of 6 or 7 mm, with options for both smaller and larger diameters to suit diverse needs.
To enhance protection and durability, flexible vinyl coatings are available, adding approximately 1mm to the diameter. These coatings come in a variety of colors including gray-blue, black, and custom options, allowing for both aesthetic and functional customization. For applications requiring low vacuum conditions or anti-reflective coating, bare cable is recommended to maintain optimal performance.
