MPS-2000

The MPS-2000 Single Stage Optical Isolator is a singlemode, polarization-independent isolator that can be connected or spliced into an optical transmission system. Offered in a Premium or Value grade, the MPS-2000 Single Stage Optical Isolators are used to prevent back reflections along a transmission path in optical networks and components by allowing light to pass in only one direction. Connectors and other optical components present in an optical network can cause diverse back reflections. The back reflections are generated from discontinuities between the optical interface of the connectors and components. Back reflections are known to have a destabilizing effect on the laser source oscillation and the operation of the optical fiber amplifiers, thus resulting in degraded system performance. Optical isolators are indispensable devices for eliminating the adverse effects of back reflections in high-speed and analog optical networks and systems. The MPS-2000 Single Stage Optical Isolator can be supplied with or without connectors and with bare fiber, 900m buffered, 2mm or 3mm jacketed fiber.
