Technical Datasheet Note
High power handling requires clean fiber end faces and proper heatsinking. Splicing into system optical paths is recommended over mechanical connectors.
Configuration and ordering notes

Configuration parameters include operating power level (5W, 10W, or 20W CW), center wavelength, tapping ratio (typically 1% or 2% for laser power monitoring), and fiber jacket.
