Frequently Asked Questions

A Polarization Maintaining Filter Coupler (PMFC) is an optical device used to split an incoming optical signal into two or more outputs while preserving the polarization state of the light. This is essential in applications where maintaining the polarization integrity is crucial for system performance.

The GK-PMFC Series is available in two primary configurations: 1x2 and 2x2. These configurations allow for flexibility in splitting the optical signal according to specific network requirements.

The standard operating wavelengths for the GK-PMFC Series are 1310 nm and 1550 nm. However, custom wavelengths can be specified if needed.

The coupler is manufactured using PM Panda Fiber for both the input and output ports, which ensures that the polarization state of the light is maintained throughout the signal transmission. This is critical for applications where polarization is essential to the system's performance.

The GK-PMFC Series offers several tap ratios, including 1/99, 5/95, 10/90, and 50/50. Custom tap ratios can also be specified to meet specific application requirements.

Yes, the GK-PMFC Series is customizable. You can specify the fiber type (such as SMF-28 or PM Panda Fiber), the connector type (such as FC/UPC, FC/APC, SC/UPC, or SC/APC), and the fiber jacket type. These options allow for integration into a wide range of optical systems.

The GK-PMFC Series can handle a maximum optical power of 300 mW, making it suitable for high-power optical applications.

The coupler features a maximum excess loss of 0.7 dB for the 1x2 configuration and 1.0 dB for the 2x2 configuration. The maximum uniformity is 0.6 dB for 1x2 and 0.8 dB for 2x2, ensuring efficient and consistent signal splitting.

The GK-PMFC Series operates within a temperature range of -5°C to +70°C and can be stored within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This wide range makes it suitable for both controlled environments and more demanding conditions.
