Polarization Beam Combiner/Splitter

The Polarization Beam Combiner/Splitter is a compact high performance lightwave component that combines two orthogonal polarization signals into one output fiber. The most common application is to combine the light of two pump lasers into a single fiber to double the pump power to an Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) or a Raman Amplifier. The typical configuration uses two PM fibers for the input and the SM fiber for the output. The device can also be used as a beam splitter.

Above specifications are for device without connector.
*For devices with connectors, IL will be 0.3dB higher, RL will be 5dB lower, and ER will be 2dB lower.

Remark: The PM fiber and the connector key are aligned to the slow axis
If port 3 is HI 1060 fiber, 250um bare fiber will be used when 250um panda fiber is selected for port 1 and 2
