SFMx -Vxx-01x02, SFMx -Vxx-01x04 Multimode Band Couplers

SFMx -Vxx-01x02, SFMx -Vxx-01x04 Multimode Band Couplers

Multimode Band Couplers are ultra reliable devices featuring low backreflection, low insertion loss, and high port isolation over wide ranges of temperature and wavelength. The Multimode Band Couplers are designed to divide and/or combine different optical signals in optical fiber systems. With its innovative Fused Technology process, series SFM Band Couplers have proven to provide exceptional characteristics for all applications demanding critical performance. Splitting ratios can be customer specified in range 1%:99% and 50%:50%. Available in a wide variety of packaging configurations, these SFM series are operable in 850 nm and 1310 nm wavelength range. Various types of pigtailing and connector  terminations are available to meet your requirements.

  • Low insertion loss
  • High port isolation
  • Custom defined specifications
  • Environmentally stable
