PM Fiber Faraday Mirror

AC Photonics’s FRDMR Series is a fiber optic polarization rotation mirror designed for fiber optic networks and measurement applications. the device can help to eliminate polarization sensitivity of an optical fiber system. Applications include eliminating polarization induced fluctuations in fiber interferometers, Brillouin amplifier systems, fiber laser systems, and fiber optic antenna remoting systems. FRDMR Series Faraday Mirror is optical path epoxy free and thus offers low insertion loss and high temperature stability.

1. The PM fiber and the connector key are aligned to the slow axis.
2. The ER is for fiber </= 0.75 meter. Increase fiber length can decrease the ER.
3. For devices with connectors, insertion loss will be 0.3dB higher, return loss will be 5dB lower, and extinction loss will be 2dB lower.
