A coupler is a device used to distribute optical power among two or more ports, by combining or dividing the signal from a number of inputs/outputs. Our couplers are available in a se;ectopm of fiber ends configurations (1X2, 1X3, 2X2) and for various fiber diameters (900 µm, 2mm, or 3 mm). All our couplers are designed for both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths, but they are customizable to operate either in wideband or at a custom single wavelength.

  • Wide range of coupling ratios
  • Selection of jacket materials and connectors
  • Compact size
