LPC, LPF Pigtail Style Collimators & Focusers

Latching; 4x4, 4x8, 8x8; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; 1240 to 1640 nm; Insertion Loss 1.2 to 2.5 dB; Crosstalk 75 dB; Switching Time 0.5 to 6 ms Sercalo Microtechnology's SL series of NxN fiber optic matrix switches are non-blocking devices that connect any of the input fibers to any of the output fibers. Available in 4x4, 4x8 and 8x8 configurations, these switches achieve low insertion loss and high repeatability. For these lower port counts the switches are based on cascaded 2x2 modules. The underlying MEMS technology permits to obtain low insertion loss combined with high crosstalk between channels. Sercalo Microtechnology’s highly reliable switching mechanism uses integrated micro-mirrors that can be moved in or out of the optical path by electrostatic actuation. Light from port A is routed to port B; an optional array of 1x1 switches independently enables or disables the channels of port A. A microcontroller supervises the routing configuration and communicates through an UART interface with TTL (option A) or RS-232 (option B) voltage levels and over a secondary SMBus/I2C (option I) or USB (option U) interface. Users can choose the factory preset and change this configuration whenever needed. The latching mechanism offers the best repeatability and long-term stability. The component is designed to conform to Telcordia 1221 reliability standards. The miniature package withstands rugged environments and is well suited for direct mounting on printed circuit boards. An evaluation board with Ethernet interface is available on request.

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.
