Description
The GK-PMTC Series Polarization Maintaining Tap Coupler from GKER Photonics is designed to provide exceptional performance in optical signal distribution and monitoring. Utilizing advanced manufacturing techniques, this coupler ensures precise splitting of optical signals while maintaining high polarization stability. It features high extinction ratios and supports a range of tap ratios, including 1%, 2%, 4%, 5%, 10%, 20%, and 50%. The coupler is engineered to offer minimal excess loss and uniformity, with a maximum excess loss of 0.7 dB for 1 × 2 configurations and 1.0 dB for 2 × 2 configurations.
The GK-PMTC Series is suitable for use in demanding optical communication systems, including fiber lasers and high-performance networks. It operates effectively across a wide wavelength range of 1310 nm and 1550 nm, with a center wavelength tolerance of ± 40 nm. Built to endure harsh conditions, it withstands up to 300 mW of continuous optical power and operates within a temperature range of -5°C to +70°C, while being able to withstand storage temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.
This coupler is constructed with high-quality SMF-28 or Panda Fiber for tap ports and Panda Fiber for input and output ports, ensuring reliable performance and durability. Its robust design also includes a maximum tensile load capacity of 5 N, making it suitable for various installation environments.
