Optical coupler modules are passive optical devices which

allow the distribution and combination of optical signals. They

are used in public and private fibre-optic networks as nodes

for data transmission (telephone, cable TV etc.); further fields

of application are in measurement set-ups, measuring instru-

ments, and sensor technology.

The basic couplers are manufactured on the basis of an ad-

vanced Fused Biconcal Taper (FBT) technology to provide opti-

mum performance and longtime stability. The coupler modules

consist of a set of different or identical fusion couplers.

Features

■ Low insertion loss and extremely low excess loss

■ Different modul configurations: For standard configurations

see table “Optical parameter“. Other configurations, e.g.

1 x 7 or 1 x 11, are available on request.

■ High return loss, i.e. no reflections interfering with the

transmitter in analogue systems

■ High thermal, mechanical and enviromental stability to

meet the requirements of Telcordia GR-1209 and GR-1221.

■ Option of manufacture to customer specifications

Applications

■ Public and private fibre-optic networks

■ Measurement systems and test equipment

■ Optical transmission and monitoring systems

Module types

Coupler Modules come in distinct types, wavelength selective

or with broadband properties:

They are classified just like SM-Couplers (see basic information

Singlemode couplers):

■ Standard Singlemode Coupler Modules

■ Wavelength Flattened Coupler Modules

■ Wavelength Independent Coupler Modules

■ Extended Wavelength Independent Coupler Modules

■ Full RangeWavelength Independent Coupler Modules
