Made with a special packaging technology, fiber-to-fiber tap/isolator devices combine an isolator and a tap in one compact package – available as polarization insensitive and polarization maintaining versions. Single- and dual-stage polarization insensitive fiber-to-fiber isolators in normal and miniature size with single mode (SM) fibers are capable of handling optical powers up to 500 mW – just as their polarization sensitive counterparts with polarization maintaining (PM) fibers.

These single- or dual-stage isolators are offered in polarization sensitive and polarization insensitive versions and combine a free-space Faraday rotator with polarizing optics to provide up to 60 dB of isolation and high optical power handling up to 1 W or even up to 10 W with minimum losses. Typical applications include laser protection, fiber coupling systems, optical amplifiers and CATV systems.Ī complete line of standard- and miniature-size pigtailed fiber-to-fiber isolators is available for wavelengths ranging from 532 nm to 2000 nm.
HIGH POWER OPTICAL ISOLATOR FREE
Power handling in fiber-to-fiber isolators can be as high as 10 W through a single mode fiber, all with minimum insertion losses, while high-power free space isolators can handle up to 120 W of average and even up to 50 kW pule peak optical power. Our isolators are available either as polarization-dependent or polarization-independent models.


For most standard wavelengths between 532 nm and 2000 nm, AMS Technologies provides a range of fiber-pigtailed or receptacle-style fiber optic isolators.
