Optical Tunable Filters
Manual Etalon Tunable Fiber Optical Filters – 1nm Linewidth, 100nm Tuning
Based on our proprietary thin film cavity filter technology, we offer Fiber Optic Tunable Filters with central wavelengths of 1060nm, 1310nm, 1550nm and 2000nm. They are tunable continuously over a wide spectral range up to 80nm. The wavelength tuning is made by manually rotating a precise micrometer. Our unique high reliability and low insertion loss design presents the most cost-effective solution for OEM applications from fiber optic networks to fiber sensing interrogation. These grating-based tunable filters block the off-bands.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect Manual Etalon Tunable Fiber Optical Filters – 1nm Linewidth, 100nm Tuning 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 Type: SMF-28, HI1060, SM1950, PM980, PM1550, PM1310, PM1950 · Fiber Cover: Bare fiber, 900μm loose tube
- 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
