The OPTOKON SFC3 polarization-insensitive fiber optic circulator is a compact, high-performance light wave component that routes incoming signals from Port 1 to Port 2, and incoming Port 2 signals to Port 3. This component provides high isolation, very low insertion loss, low polarization dependent loss (PDL), low polarization mode dispersion (PMD), and excellent environmental stability.
- Very low insertion loss
- Broadband
- Low wavelength dependent loss
- Low temperature dependent loss
- High-power handling capability and reliability
- High isolation
- Compact cylindrical package
- Excellent environment stability
