Laser Components CO2
lasers are cost effective
and powerful lasers with very high efficiency. Tey
are mainly used in medical applications, material processing and marking. Until recently it was difficult to deliver the laser beam to the desired location. With the special patchcord developed by Laser Components, it is now possible to easily, and at low cost, transmit the CO2
laser light to the desired location. With a
suitable fibre coupling unit, the laser light is coupled into the fibre. Te main part of the patchcord is a hollow silica waveguide with a core diameter of 500µm, 750µm or 1,000µm. Te fibre is protected by a metal tube which limits the bending radius and protects the fibre against breakage.

The Light Brigade Visit Te Light Brigade to see the very latest in fibre optic training including the new ‘Fiber Optic Safety’
DVD. On the booth will be an interactive e-learning demo for its Certified Fiber to the Home Professional (CFHP) course. Registrations are now open for the two-day CFHP training course to be held at OFC on
Ibsen Photonics Ibsen PING - Polarization Independent Gratings - are 100 per cent dielectric gratings, which offer unbeatable environmental and thermal stability combined with high-efficiency, low PDL performance. PING telecom gratings are surface relief gratings, produced by holographic stepper technology and advanced reactive ion etching, leading to gratings with unbeatable thermal and environmental stability, with no polymers, epoxies, gelatins or metals in the grating whatsoever. Ibsen’s PING grating technology is able to achieve 95 per cent diffraction efficiency and 0.05dB PDL (Polarization Dependent Loss). Low angular sensitivity is an added bonus for module design and assembly. In telecom DWDM
Tursday and Friday. Visitors will also be able to find out more about the company’s new FTTx Outside Plant Design course, get exclusive details about its upcoming POLAN training, or learn how Light Brigade can build the perfect customised training course for you.

Polatis Te latest addition to the Polatis DirectLight family of performance-leading all-optical circuit switches packs a 48-port all-optical cross-connect into a compact 1U chassis height with low energy consumption and carrier-class reliability. Now featuring embedded OpenFlow control alongside TL1, SNMP and web UI, the Series 6000 Lite is ideal for adding optical circuit switch functionality to your soſtware-defined network, enabling router
Optoscribe Optoscribe 3D waveguides are the ideal solution for space division multiplexing (SDM). Connecting between singlemode fibres (SMF), multimode fibres (MMF) and multicore fibres (MCF) is made simple. Te 3D Optofan Series enables users to dramatically increase the amount of data that can be transferred across networks, minimise network costs and maximise cable performance, especially where space is at a premium and super connectivity is essential. Te 3D MMux Photonic Lantern provides a unique interface between multimode and singlemode technologies for easy mode division multiplexing using Few Mode Fibres (FMFs). Unlike more conventional bundled fibre technologies, the 3D Optofan Series offer standard 4,7 and 19 core configurations that can be easily customised to suit MCF geometry.

bypass with near-zero, speed-of-light signal latency for time-critical traffic. Te patented DirectLight dark fibre switch technology assures robust connectivity with typical optical loss less than 1dB and back reflections below 50dB. Integrated optical power meters enable signal monitoring, levelling and protection. Te fanless chassis includes redundant network interfaces and AC/DC hot-swap power together with high density LC-HD or MPO optical connectors.

dispersion compensator provided in its smallest achievable form factor to be integrated within compact transponders environments. Tis low insertion loss dispersion compensator increases the reach of 100G direct detection transmission solutions such as 4X28 Gb/s CFP for router interconnect applications. All 50 GHz spaced C-band channels are compensated simultaneously once it has been spliced to a low bend loss 3- port optical circulator. Using TeraXion’s RoHS compliant and multi-channel Fiber Bragg Grating technology, these compensators exhibit high optical performances that allow use in high-speed networks.
