Technical Datasheet Note & 100W Load Performance
Under continuous 100W CW power, bare fiber leads are strictly required (standard optical connectors are restricted to ≤ 1W). When mounted to an active heatsink (baseplate ≤ 30°C), Return Loss (RL) remains guaranteed ≥ 45 dB across all ports, and Insertion Loss (IL) thermal drift is strictly controlled within < 0.15 dB. Conduction or water cooling is required for 100W CW power.
Configuration and ordering notes

Specified for high-power fiber laser amplifiers and bidirectional transmission systems requiring high damage threshold. Engineering review covers operating wavelength, power rating (50W or 100W), and fiber lead specifications during configuration review.
