Technical Datasheet Note
With connectors, handling power is limited to 1W; IL increases by 0.3 dB, RL decreases by 5 dB and ER decreases by 2 dB.
Configuration and ordering notes

Selected when both polarization extinction (≥18-20 dB) and high CW/pulse optical power handling (up to 20W / 10 kW peak) are needed in a rugged aluminum enclosure.

Selection Guidance: Compare TFF vs FBT multiplexing and ASE suppression in our WDM & Optical Filters for EDFA Guide ↗ or PM WDM Selection Guide ↗.

Key Applications

Test instruments; Coherent communication systems; Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers; Fiber sensing.
