<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Power Meters
Fiber Optic Power Meters - (104 companies)

Fiber optic power meters are instruments that measure the average power of a continuous light beam. They are used to test signal power in fiber optic networks. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Light Guides
Fiber Optic Light Guides - (32 companies)

Fiber optic light guides are bundles of optical fibers used for the controlled deliver of light. They tend to be more rigid, and transmit well in both the visible and near-infrared (near-IR) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Fiber optic light guides are sometimes called fiber optic light pipes (fiber optic lightpipes). Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Transmitters
Fiber Optic Transmitters - (101 companies)

Fiber optic transmitters are devices that include an LED or laser source, and signal conditioning electronics, to inject a signal into fiber. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Transceivers
Fiber Optic Transceivers - (138 companies)

Fiber optic transceivers include both a transmitter and a receiver in the same component. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Receivers
Fiber Optic Receivers - (108 companies)

Fiber optic receivers are instruments that convert light into electrical signals. They contain a photodiode semiconductor, signal conditioning circuitry, and an amplifier. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Couplers
Fiber Optic Couplers - (205 companies)

Fiber optic couplers are optical devices that connect three or more fiber ends, dividing one input between two or more outputs, or combining two or more inputs into one output. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Attenuators
Fiber Optic Attenuators - (191 companies)

Fiber optic attenuators are devices that reduce signal power in fiber optic links by inducing a fixed or variable loss. They are used to control the power level of optical signals at the outputs of light sources and electrical-to-optical (E/O) converters. They are also used to test the linearity and dynamic range of photo sensors and photo detectors. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Switches
Fiber Optic Switches - (114 companies)

Fiber optic switches route an optical signal without electro-optical and opto-electrical conversions. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Amplifiers
Fiber Optic Amplifiers - (104 companies)

Fiber optic amplifiers re-amplify an attenuated signal without converting the signal into electrical form. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Fiber</B> <B>Optic</B> Rotary Joints
Fiber Optic Rotary Joints - (6 companies)

Fiber optic rotary joints (FORJ) are the optical equivalent of electrical slip rings. They allow uninterrupted transmission of an optical signal while rotating along the fiber axis. Learn More
