High Power Fiber Optical Circulator 1310nm & 1550nm

The 1310/1550 nm high power optical circulator is designed for high power applications. This non-reciprocal device redirects light at 1310/1550 nm wavelengths from port-to-port in only one direction while minimizing back reflection and back scattering in the reverse directions for any state of polarization. Employing our advanced micro optics design, it features low insertion loss, low polarization sensitivity, high isolation, compact structure, and high stability. The excellent characteristics of this product make it an ideal choice for application in fiber amplifier systems, pump laser diodes, and optical fiber sensors. This circulator can be made using a variety of fibers including HI980, HI1060, LMA, and double cladding fibers.

Application context

Why this design is used

Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.

Laser source protection

High Power Fiber Optical Circulator 1310nm & 1550nm: Laser source protection depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1310, 1550, C-band, L-band, C+L, Special wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, PM1550) must match the connected components.

Bidirectional signal routing

High Power Fiber Optical Circulator 1310nm & 1550nm: Bidirectional signal routing depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1310, 1550, C-band, L-band, C+L, Special wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, PM1550) must match the connected components.

Optical interface and fiber
Fiber Type: SMF-28, PM1550 · Fiber Cover: Bare fiber, 900um loose tube, 250um, Special
Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
Wavelength and loss budget
Wavelength: 1310, 1550, C-band, L-band, C+L, Special
Check the Isolators & Circulators passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
