For 532, 635, 650 nm the maximum insertion loss is 2.5, 2.3, and 2.3 dB respectively. For 780, 850 nm the maximum insertion loss is 1.8 dB. For 980, 1030, 1060 nm the maximum insertion loss is 1.5 dB.

The maximum PDL and PMD for all wavelengths is 0.2 dB and 0.2 ps, respectively.

The minimum return loss and directivity for all wavelengths are 45 dB and 40 dB, respectively.

For 532 nm the maximum optical power handling is 50 mW, for 635, 650 nm it's 100 mW, for 780, 850 nm it's 150 mW, and for 980, 1030, 1060 nm it's 250 mW.

The package dimensions are Φ21xL60 mm for 532 nm, Φ21xL75 mm for 635, 650 nm, Φ24xL80 mm for 780, 850 nm, and Φ24xL95 mm for 980, 1030, 1060 nm.

Contact Ascentta with your custom configuration needs, specifying the port, wavelength, fiber type, cable type, fiber length, connector, maximum power, and package. For example, 'VCIR3=3-Port', '532=532nm', 'S=Single-Mode' for fiber type, etc. The given codes such as 'B=250um', 'L=900um' etc., should be used to specify cable type and other options.
