PM1300G-80/170-5, PM Panda-Type Gyro Optical Fiber
Coherent 1300 nm PANDA-style PM Gyroscope fibers have extremely high birefringence and exceptionally tight dimensional specifications, critical for manufacturing high precision, high-performance gyro-coils. The intrinsically high level of radiation resistance allows operation for extended periods of time on low Earth orbits, near and deep space, and applications where exposure to man-made radiation is expected.
Features and Benefits
- PANDA-style PM - Superior performance
- Extremely high birefringence - Less gyroscope drift
- Bend insensitive - Smaller diameter coils possible
- Excellent crosstalk stability over temperature range - Minimize Shupe effects
- HP version with best specifications available - Improved repeatability and splicability
- RoHS compliant
Applications
- Fiber optic gyroscopes (FOGs)
- Fiber optic voltage and current sensors
- Laser pigtailing
- Small form factor couplers
- Specialty sensors
