The F-ILP-2-F-SS-FA Fiber Optic In-Line Polarizer is designed for 1550 nm fiber optic networks and measurement applications, which include polarization analyzing, polarization monitoring and control, Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) monitoring, Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) monitoring, spectrum filtering and control, Polarization Extinction Ratio (PER) improvement, fiber laser mode-locking and polarization interferometry. When combined with Newport's F-POL Series Polarization Controllers it can also function as a variable fiber optic attenuator. The F-ILP Series is based on integrating a high PER micro-polarizer in a rugged stainless steel package for high optical performance and stability. These compact devices offer low insertion loss, low back reflection and high extinction ratio. This version has a 1 m Corning SMF-28 SM fiber pigtails on both ends with 900 µm loose tube and FC/APC connectors.
