Single and Dual Multimode Fiber Collimator

Single and Dual Multimode Fiber Collimator

ACP’s multimode fiber collimator is a compact optical device that aligns a multimode optical fiber to a precision graded-index (GRIN) or C-lens, producing a collimated output beam from the collimator lens.

All AC Photonics' products are Telcordia qualification tested.

Note:

1) At 10mm working distance and single wavelength. Dual wavelength IL will increase by 0.2 dB.
2) At front focal length as reflection working distance (RWD) and single wavelength with 100% reflection mirror.
3) It will be different for different multimode laser sources.
