1310/1480/1550 nm PBS/PBC (2 × 2)
The Dual Polarization Beam Combiner/Splitter, 2 × 2 PBC/PBS, is a compact high performance lightwave component that combines or divides two orthogonal polarization signals into one or two output fibers. The most common applications are in polarization mode dispersion compensators, EDFAs, Raman Amplifier, coherent telecommunication systems and fiber sensors. The Dual Polarization Beam Combiner/Splitter is characterized with high extinction ratio and low insertion loss.
