Optical Circulator
Pictures and Schematic Diagram
The polarization-insensitive optical circulator provides low insertion loss, broad band, high isolation, low PDL, excellent thermal stability, and epoxy-free optical channels. It can be used to as an add-drop multiplexer, dispersion compensator, or for EDFA applications.
