SINGLE MODE COUPLERS

AOFR's fused biconic taper coupler technology and advanced production techniques make for consistent high-performance couplers that are designed for the end users' specific applications. AOFR's unique manufacturing process does not introduce a water absorption peak at 1383nm allowing true wideband operation.

A variety of standard coupler packages, as well as pigtail options and connectorization are available, if required. Non-standard devices can be supplied upon request. All AOFR couplers conform to stringent environmental and mechanical standards to give high reliability for a variety of field applications.

Dual and Single Window Couplers and Taps

AOFR's Duals Window (Wideband) and Single Window (Wavelength Flattened) fused biconic taper coupler use advanced production techniques that make for consistent high-performance devices that are designed for the end users' specific applications. Dual Window devices are specified over the entire 1260nm - 1580nm wavelength range while the Single Window devices offer lower insertion loss and wavelength dependant loss over the 1260nm - 1360nm or 1430nm - 1580nm wavelength ranges.

AOFR's unique manufacturing process allows true wideband operation with no water absorption peak at 1383nm.

1xN and 2xN Splitters

AOFR's family of 1xN and 2xN optical splitters are prestructured trees, manufactured from AOFR's high performance FBT couplers. They are designed for very low insertion loss and high uniformity, making these devices ideal for use as splitters in Passive Optical Networks (PONs) in Fiber to the Home (FTTH) and Fiber to the Curb (FTTC) architectures.

AOFR's unique manufacturing process allows true wideband operation with no water absorption peak at 1383nm.

Standard product is available with equal splitting, however, non-equal splitting can be customized to suit specific applications. Manufactured to Telcordia 1209 and 1221 guidelines these bidirectional devices are available in standard, customized or customer supplied packaging with or without connectors.
