Frequently Asked Questions

The features include low loss and cost, broad bandwidth, good uniformity, small package, high directivity, and a wide variety of wavelengths from 780 nm–2005 nm.

They are used to split optical signals between two (or more) fibers or to combine optical signals from two (or more) fibers into one fiber.

Some applications include optical amplifiers, fiber lasers, power monitoring, fiber gyroscopes, and coherent communications.

The split ratio tolerances range from ±5% to ±0.5% at design wavelengths depending upon the splitting ratio.

Typical excess losses are as low as 0.2 dB.
