Frequently Asked Questions

What is the function of the 3-Port Optical Circulator?
The 3-Port Optical Circulator is a device that directs light from one port to another in a specific sequence, typically from port 1 to port 2 and then from port 2 to port 3, while isolating the reverse direction.
What is the maximum optical power handling capacity?
The maximum optical power handling capacity varies by wavelength; for 780nm, it is 150mW.
What are the operating and storage temperature ranges for the circulator?
The operating temperature range is 10°C to 50°C, and the storage temperature range is 0°C to 60°C.
How does adding connectors affect the circulator's specifications?
Adding connectors can affect the insertion loss (IL), return loss (RL), and extinction ratio (ER) of the circulator.
What is the extinction ratio for the circulator?
The minimum extinction ratio is 20 dB for wavelengths 780nm and above.
What are the package dimensions for the circulator?
The package dimensions are Φ24xL65 mm. Other wavelengths may have different dimensions.
