Description
The GKER Photonics Polarization Maintaining Patchcord (GK-PMP Series) is engineered to deliver superior performance and reliability in critical optical applications. With excellent environmental stability, high return loss, and low insertion loss, this patchcord is ideal for use in polarization-maintaining (PM) amplifiers, fiber lasers, and test instrumentation. It ensures that the polarization state of light is preserved even under demanding conditions, making it an essential component in applications where signal integrity is paramount.
The patchcord is available with a variety of connectors, including FC/UPC, FC/APC, SC/UPC, SC/APC, and more, ensuring compatibility with different setups. The precision-aligned connector key guarantees that the slow axis is correctly oriented, providing consistent performance across a range of wavelengths. Designed to meet Telcordia standards, the GK-PMP Series is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, with an operating temperature range from -5°C to +70°C and storage capability from -40°C to +85°C.
The patchcord is also customizable, with options for fiber length, connector type, and fiber jacket, allowing it to be tailored to specific application needs. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for both standard and specialized optical systems.
