PM Panda Fiber Optic Patch Cord Slow Axis 1550nm FC APC To FC APC 1M
Polarization maintaining (PM) patch cord / jumper leads are built with polarization maintaining panda fiber and connectorise using FC/UPC, FC/APC, SC and LC connectors. Patchcords can be supplied in 250um bare fiber, 900um buffered fiber or 3mm cable.The unique feature of PMF terminations is that the fibers must be accurately aligned with respect to the connector key. The alignment ensures that when two PM fibers are mated in an adapter, or when a PM assembly is connected to a polarized source, the optical polarization planes are in close alignment to minimize optical losses. Alignment is typically performed to the slow axis, however other orientations are achievable.
