Isolators & Circulators
980/1550nm WDM/Isolator Hybrid
Our 980/1550 nm WDM/Isolator Hybrid is a combination of a filter and a 1550 nm polarization insensitive optical isolator. It is a low-cost model with excellent performance, including low insertion loss, high isolation, high return loss, low polarization-dependent loss (PDL), and low polarization mode dispersion (PMD). This product offers an integrated solution to EDFA application by combining more functions into a very compact package. All our products are Telcordia qualification tested.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect 980/1550nm WDM/Isolator Hybrid to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Fiber: HI1060/SMF28, Special · 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: 980/C Band, 980/L Band, T1550/R980
- 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.
