Circulator

Circulator is to transmit an input signal directionally from one port to the next, while preventing the signal from being transmitted in the opposite direction. Circulators are used in optical communications, radar systems and microwave engineering.

The 3-port polarization insensitive circulator features excellent performance over a wide wavelength range . The technology is a lead-free packaging platform and epoxy-free in optical path. These devices are designed to work as pump combiners for Dispersion Compensation, Bi-directional Transmission, Add/Drop Multiplexing, Fiber Sensor and other optical network applications.
