Drop-in coupler and wdm

The NoTail Drop-In Coupler and wdm are ready to be dropped into an optical system without requiring fiber pigtails. They have an optical path relay of about 30 cm between the input and output, and may be used in interferometric and fiber-laser systems. The couplers can operate at 633, 820, 980, 1310, or 1550 nm, depending on the model, and have an intrinsic excess loss of 0.1 dB. Different models of the wdms can separate or combine 1310/1550-, 980/1550-, or 1480/1550-nm wavelength pairs, and have respective intrinsic excess losses of 0.1, 0.3, and 0.2 dB. Both devices measure 1.25 ¥ 3.5 ¥ 5.8 inches and are back-mounted on magnets.
