Selection / comparison
How to Select a Pump Combiner
Choose a pump combiner by port count, pump wavelength, signal wavelength, fiber and pump power per port.
Use this page when the application is known but the component specification still needs to be narrowed before RFQ.
Selection logic
Port count
Start with N×1, (2+1)×1 or (6+1)×1 according to the laser architecture.
Pump and signal bands
Confirm the pump wavelength band and the signal wavelength band.
Fiber mapping matters
Input pump fiber, signal fiber and output fiber must be reviewed together; the package is not selected independently.
Power per pump
Provide pump power per port and total target system power for engineering review.
Quick comparison
| Input | Example |
|---|---|
| Port configuration | N×1 / (2+1)×1 / (6+1)×1 |
| Pump band | e.g. 800–1000 nm |
| Signal band | e.g. 1030–1080 nm |
| Required engineering inputs | Fiber sizes + NA + power per pump + package |
