FOC-12 Fiber Optic Circulators

Product information "FOC-12 Fiber Optic Circulators"

PM and SM Versions; Panda PM or SM Fiber; 780 to 1550 nm; 3 Ports; Insertion Loss ≤0.7 to ≤1.0 dB

Fiber optic circulators act as signal routers, transmitting light from an input fiber to an output fiber, but directing light that returns along that output fiber to a third port. They perform a similar function as an isolator, protecting the input fiber from return power, but also allowing the rejected light to be employed. OZ Optics miniature inline circulators are ideal for OEM applications. They are available with either singlemode or polarization maintaining fiber. OZ Optics’ PM fiber optic circulators are manufactured with polarization maintaining fibers, making them ideal for polarization maintaining applications such as 40 Gbit systems or Raman pump applications. They are also used in double pass amplifiers and in chromatic dispersion compensation modules. 

The standard PM fiber alignment is for all power to be transmitted along the slow axis of each fiber (Fast axis blocking). With OZ Optics’ modular design and custom manufacturing capabilities, any of the three ports can be aligned for fast axis coupling. High extinction ratio connectors can also be installed. Regardless of the state of polarization of the return beam, the input fiber will still be isolated from reflected light. For non-telecom wavelengths and high power applications, the cube style circulator is offered. This design is well suited for custom applications.

Additional connector and cable options and custom designs are also available. Please forward a detailed description of your application to us.

SW Series Fiber Optic MEMS Switches
Non-latching; 1x2 to 1x32; Fiber Type SM, MM; 1240 to 1640 nm; Insertion Loss 0.5 to 2.5 dB; Crosstalk 60 dB; Switching Time 1 to 20 ms Sercalo Microtechnology’s SW series are very fast, opto-mechanical switches based on the MEMS technology. These non-latching MEMS switches available both for single mode (SM) and multi mode (MM) fibers in 1x2, 1x4, 1x8, 1x13, 1x16, 1x32 and 2x2 configurations. All SW series 1xN components are designed to establish an optical connection between one optical port and either one of up to 32 input or output lines in a very short time, while the 2x2 variants are designed for optical cross connect switching in single mode (SM) or multi mode (MM) fiber networks. Powered by a 5 VDC supply voltage, the SW series switches allow to control the switching state with a 5 V TTL or CMOS drive signal. The switching mechanism offers the reliability of a solid state device; it neither wears out nor degrades over time. Even after billions of cycles the switching quality stays constant. The SW series’ highly reliable switching mechanism uses integrated micromirrors, features fast switching times down to below 1 ms for some models and shows only 0.5 to 2.5 dB insertion loss. With its MEMS switching structure, the SM series of fiber optic MEMS switches achieves repeatability of 0.001 dB and shows a very flat insertion loss over the full spectrum of the fiber. The miniature package withstands rugged environments and is well suited for direct mounting on printed circuit boards. The SM switch series is qualified according to Telcordia GR 1221 and mainly used in test and measurement applications. Key Features: Reliable Insertion Loss (IL): 0.5 to 2.5 dB Response Time: 1 to 20 ms Crosstalk: 60 dB Miniature Size Non-latching Applications: Optical Reconfiguration; Protection Switching; Network Restoration
