Description
The GKER Photonics Polarization Maintaining (PM) Patchcord Series is engineered to provide superior performance in critical applications requiring stable polarization and minimal signal loss. This series is characterized by its excellent environmental stability, high return loss, low insertion loss, and a high extinction ratio, making it an ideal choice for PM amplifiers, fiber lasers, and test instrumentation applications.
Constructed with precision-aligned PM fibers, these patchcords ensure consistent polarization orientation, essential for maintaining signal integrity in high-performance optical systems. The patchcords are available in various connector types, including FC/UPC, FC/APC, SC/UPC, and SC/APC, offering flexibility in different setups. Additionally, they support wavelengths of 1950 nm and 2000 nm, catering to a wide range of optical applications.
Designed to handle continuous optical power up to 300 mW, these patchcords are reliable even in demanding environments, with an operating temperature range of -5°C to +70°C and a storage range of -40°C to +85°C. The PM Patchcords are available in different fiber jacket options, including bare fiber, loose tube, and cable formats, allowing for customization to meet specific application needs.
