Introduction: | PM fibers offer a means to control the polarization of optical signals throughout the system, thus controlling Polarization Dependent Losses (PDL) and Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD). In general, PHOTONIK uses PM fibers based on the PANDA fiber structure when building polarization maintaining lensed fiber components. Our advanced fiber assembly platform allows OEMs to consolidate suppliers of metalized fiber, hermetic sleeves, AR coatings, Lensing, Fiber Bragg Gratings and connectorization into a single source for the entire pigtail assembly. |
