The In-line Polarizer is designed to pass light with one specific polarization while blocking the other polarization. It can be used to convert no-polarized light into polarized light with high extinction ratio. It can also be used to enhance the extinction ratio of signals with its excellent polarization properties. It is ideal for high speed communication systems and test instrumentation where high polarization extinction ratio is required.
If you do not see a standard In-line Polarizer that meets your needs, we welcome the opportunity to review your desired specification and quote a custom In-line Polarizer . Requests for custom fiber pigtails, different wavelengths and handling power of operation or other specific needs will be readily addressed.

*Above specifications are for device without connector.
*For devices with connectors, IL will be 0.3dB higher, RL will be 5dB lower and ER will be 2dB lower. The default connector key is aligned to slow axis. Powers transmit through the connector less than 2W.
*For >10W high power applications, we will use heat sink package, contact OPC Photonics for details.
* If there is pulse application, please be sure to inform us of pulse energy and peak power.
Package Dimension
*Due to ongoing design improvements, the package size is subject to change. Please contact OPC Photonics for confirmation.
Order information P/N: ILP-①-②-③-④-⑤-⑥
When you inquire, please provide the correct P/N number according to our ordering information, and attach the appropriate description would be better. If need any connector, we do not recommend choosing a 250μm bare fiber pigtail.
