Configuration and ordering notes
Fiber diameter class, expected cladding-light load and package conditions are reviewed together. Stripping-power ratings apply to the listed configurations.
Selection Guidance: Compare combiner architectures and fiber matching in our Pump Combiner Selection Guide ↗ or N×1 vs (6+1)×1 Architecture Guide ↗.
Key Applications
High-power fiber lasers; High-power fiber amplifiers; ASE suppression; Cladding mode stripping before output termination.
