CONN SM Patch Cables

Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; 400 to 2000 nm; Focused Spot Size 2.0 to 6.5 µm; Working Distance 3 to 30 µm; Minimum Strip Distance 5 mm; Return Loss -20 dB Standard, -25 dB With AR Coating OZ Optics TSMJ/TMMJ/TPMJ series of tapered and lensed fibers offers a convenient way to improve coupling between optical fibers and waveguide devices, laser diodes or photo diodes. By laser shaping the fiber end, the light can be transformed to improve mode matching and coupling efficiency with the waveguide device, laser diode chip or photodiode chip. The manufacturing process allows for improved coupling to either circular or oval input spots (this must be specified in advance). OZ Optics tapered and lensed fibers are manufactured by laser shaping the endface to create the optimal light output/input for specific applications. This method provides the best coupling efficiencies and mode matching abilities in a taper. An alternative technique is to instead polish the end face of the fiber to a specific radius and taper angle, forming a lens. Oval spots can also be formed using the polishing technique, normally by shaping the fiber to form a chisel or wedge shape. Single mode (SM), multi mode (MM) or Panda type polarization maintaining (PM) fibers can be tapered. For multi mode fibers, only polished versions with a polish radius and taper angle can be produced. OZ Optics can also generate other polish profiles, such as wedge shapes, which are useful for coupling strip laser diodes into multimode fibers. In general, OZ Optics uses polarization maintaining fibers based on the PANDA fiber structure when building polarization maintaining (PM) components and patch cords. However, OZ Optics can construct devices using other PM fiber structures. OZ Optics also carries some alternative fiber types in stock, please contact AMS Technologies for availability. If necessary, OZ Optics is willing to use customer supplied fibers to build devices. Custom configurations can be designed if required. Tapered fibers can be incorporated into other OZ Optics assemblies including the HSMJ, HMMJ, HPMJ series of hermetically sealable patchcords with metal solder, the HGSMJ/HGMMJ/HGPMJ series of hermetically sealable patchcords with glass solder or the VGA series of V-Groove assemblies, thus aiding in the development of photonic devices that meet Telcordia requirements.

Single Mode Patchcords; 440 to 1625 nm; Attenuation 0.5 to 20 dB; Return Loss 50, 60 dB; Power Handling ≤2 W OZ Optics’ PFA series of low cost fixed attenuating single mode fiber patchcords are ideal for high power applications and can be easily installed into fiber splice enclosures. The Attenuating Fiber Advantage: OZ Optics has recently enhanced its fixed attenuator product line by developing a new technology to precisely attenuate signals in fibers. This patent pending, fully automatable technique allows one to create fixed attenuators within any standard fiber, with low polarization dependent loss (PDL) and high power handling. The resultant attenuating fiber is physically identical in appearance and behaviour to the original fiber, allowing it to be used to build attenuating fiber patchcords. As the process used does not require the manufacture of special fiber, fixed attenuators can be constructed in small batch quantities economically. At the same time the automation aspect of the techniques allows large quantity orders to be manufactured at a reasonable cost. Attenuating fiber is capable of handling up to 2 W of optical power at 1550 nm. The attenuating section is only a couple of millimetres to a couple of centimeters long, depending on the attenuation. The fiber used in OZ attenuators features a double cladding, with an absorbing dopant in the inner cladding layer. This double cladding structure effectively suppresses light scattering into the cladding. Thus the readings will not significantly depend on the application. Attenuating patchcords are available with between 0.5 and 20 dB attenuation, in 0.1 dB increments. Higher attenuation levels and higher resolution attenuation steps are possible. Prototype and custom designs can be made quickly and in small volumes economically.
