Bifurcated Optical Fibre

Thorlabs bifurcated fiber bundles also known as fanout or y cables are constructed from two high grade optical fibers encased in stainless steel tubing for durability.

Bifurcated optical fibre.

Overview mutli branch fiber bundles have one common end and evenly divide light output among two or three output ends. Very resistant to uv light down to 185nm din 58145 2017 01. Thorlabs offers multimode fiber bundles in straight bifurcated y cable or fan out configurations and round or linear bundle end configurations. The goal of using a bifurcated fiber assembly is either to split a signal or to combine signals.

Bifurcated cable assemblies are y shaped assemblies with two fibers of the same diameter. Qualified proprietary optical fiber is wpi s most advanced optical fiber product line. The two fibers are side by side inside of a common premium sma 905 connector on one end. Our stock fiber optic bundles are terminated with sma905 connectors and are offered with high oh fiber low oh fiber and our mid ir fluoride optical fiber for 285 nm 4 5 µm.

The most common example of a fiber optic bundle is known as a bifurcated fiber assembly. Our bifurcated optogenetics cable feature sma905 or fc pc connectors. Double bifurcated fibre optic assembly routing light from two different sources to two different spectrometers configured for different wavelength ranges uv vis and vis nir. As shown in the table.

Bifurcated optical fibers bifurcated fibers have two fibers side by side in the common end and break out into two legs at the other end. Both input legs hold fibres of different types. From the breakout point of the assembly the two fibers diverge into two legs. Double bifurcated fibre optic assembly routing light alternately from two different sources to two different spectrometers simultaneously and these configured for different wavelength ranges sif approximately 640 nm to 800 nm and vnir approximately 400 nm to 950 nm.

This assembly has two fibres side by side in each of its two input legs. Edmund optics also offers optical fiber components including patchcords collimators faceplates or the tools needed for cutting or stripping optical fibers. We offer these bundles with seven fiber core sizes from ø50 µm to ø1000 µm. Fibers are available with varying attenuation response core diameters and assembly lengths.

Figure 7 1 shows an. A fiber optic bundle is defined as any fiber optic assembly that contains more than one fiber optic in a single cable.
