The GKER Polarization Maintaining Tap Coupler (GK-PMTC Series) is an advanced optical component engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern fiber optic systems. Designed with precision and manufactured using cutting-edge technology, this coupler ensures that the input optical signal is split into multiple outputs while maintaining the polarization state of the light. This capability is critical for applications where the integrity of the polarization is essential, such as in high-performance telecommunications, fiber optic sensing, and quantum cryptography.

One of the standout features of the GK-PMTC Series is its exceptional extinction ratio, which guarantees that the polarization of the optical signal is preserved across the split outputs. This is particularly important in systems where polarization plays a key role in the accuracy and reliability of the signal transmission. The coupler also boasts a low excess loss, ensuring minimal signal degradation and thus maintaining the overall efficiency of the optical network.

The GK-PMTC Series is available in both 1x2 and 2x2 configurations, offering flexibility to suit a variety of system designs. The coupler supports standard wavelengths of 1310 nm and 1550 nm, which are commonly used in fiber optic communications, but it can also be customized to operate at other wavelengths if required. This adaptability makes it an ideal solution for both existing infrastructure and new deployments.

In terms of performance, the GK-PMTC Series excels with its ability to handle a wide range of tap ratios, from 1/99 to 50/50, allowing precise control over the signal distribution. Whether the application demands a small portion of the signal to be tapped off for monitoring purposes or a more substantial division for parallel processing, this coupler delivers consistent and reliable results.

The construction of the GK-PMTC Series is robust, designed to operate in various environmental conditions with an operating temperature range of -5°C to +70°C and a storage temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This durability ensures that the coupler can perform reliably in both controlled environments and more challenging field conditions.

Furthermore, the coupler is designed to handle high optical power levels, supporting up to 300 mW of continuous wave optical power, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including high-power optical networks. The use of PM Panda Fiber for the input and output ports, combined with the option of SMF-28 or PM Panda Fiber for the tap port, ensures high performance and compatibility with various optical systems.

The compact and standardized package dimensions make the GK-PMTC Series easy to integrate into existing systems. Its precise connector alignment ensures that the key is aligned to the slow axis, further enhancing the polarization maintaining properties.

Overall, the GKER Polarization Maintaining Tap Coupler (GK-PMTC Series) is an essential component for any optical system that requires high polarization extinction ratio, low loss, and reliable performance across a wide range of operating conditions. Whether for use in telecommunications, fiber optic sensing, quantum communications, or other advanced optical systems, the GK-PMTC Series provides the reliability and precision needed to ensure optimal system performance.
