Fiber Coupled Detectors

Mini Single Mode Inline Tap Power Monitor

The Tap Optical Power Monitor is a hybrid fiber optical passive component that integrates a thin-film tap of flat spectral response with a high sensitivity PIN photodiode for power monitoring applications. The Power Monitor minimizes component assembly costs and module footprint while increasing module design efficiency by facilitating fiber Management. The Power Monitor combines the functionality of an optical coupler and a photodiode while delivering low insertion loss and low dark current with high temperature stability over a wide wavelength range. Our directional version works well from 1260nm to 1620nm band.
