| When looking for a high quality fiber with superior transmission and a numerical aperture (N.A.) of 0.22 for efficient light coupling, the Superguide™ SFS is the fiber of choice. The Superguide™ fiber is drawn from preforms manufactured by the Plasma Outside Deposition (POD) process. Rods of extremely pure synthetic fused silica are coated with fluorine doped silica layers to obtain preforms with step-like refractive index profiles. Plasma torches prepare the reaction compounds from SiCl4, O2, and a fluorine containing gas. Strong thermal gradients combined with the temperature plasma lead to chemical deposition conditions, which allow very high fluorine concentrations to be incorporated in the fused silica network. Refractive index differences of 0.27 corresponding to numerical apertures in excess of 0.28 have been realized with undoped core rods. |

With numerical aperature (N.A.) of 0.39 and a hard polymer cladding that allows a high core-to-clad ratio, the Anhydroguide™ APCH is the low cost fiber of choice. The pure fused silica (SiO2) used in the core of Anhydroguide™ fiber is made by reacting silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) with oxygen (O2) using a plasma arc rather than an oxy-hydrogen flame. This ensures that the residual hydroxyl concentration (OH) will be low in the core material resulting in superior infrared transmission as compared with flame prepared silica that is used in the
companion product, Superguide™, which has superior ultraviolet (UV) transmission. |

Long life, deep UV transmission is made possible with Fiberguide¡¯s solarization resistant optical fibers, wherein the fiber core and clad are hydrogen doped at very high temperatures as the fiber exits the draw furnace and then hermetically sealed with an aluminum buffer/jacket during the fiber draw process. This break-through, patented in-line process allow the use of fiber with a wide variety of UV laser sources, making Solarguide¢â 193 the fiber best suited for deep UV (¡Â 300nm) applications. Irradiation of standard silica fibers with UV photons below 260nm generates defects in the standard silica
structure, so-called ¡°solarization¡±. The solarization is the reason for the significant decrease in standard fiber transmission in UV wavelengths over time making fiber eventually useless in that application. When present in the silica core, hydrogen combines with the defects generated and neutralizes them, preventing the UV photons from being absorbed and thereby lost. Although the effect of hydrogen in lowering the fiber solarization rates in silica is widely known, Solarguide¢â 193 is the only fiber in the industry that has its own
hydrogen supply which has been sealed in with a hermetic shroud (aluminum buffer) around the fiber, thereby making it available for keeping the fiber solarization resistant for significantly longer periods. |

| Silica optical fibers, despite their high strength, require coatings to protect and maintain their strength during installation and operation when high temperatures, abrasion, bending, and other stresses can cause fiber fatigue. OFS offers both single-mode and multimode optical fibers with protective coating layers applied directly to the glass during the fiber draw process. |
|
| OFS ClearLite™ TruePhase™ Polarization-Maintaining fibers are available in a full range of wavelengths. They use industry-standard, stress-applying parts (SAPs) to create two axes in the core, each of which guides light at a different velocity. Crosstalk between the two axes (fast and slow) is suppressed so that polarized light launched into either of the axes will remain polarized as it is guided. Our dual, circular design allows use of standard splice recipes from all major splice equipment manufacturers. When spliced correctly, TruePhase fibers exhibit low loss and high extinction ratios. |

market since 1977. Our staff of engineers, technical sales professionals and experienced production team unites
in developing that product specific to your individual application. We design and engineer assemblies using not
only our own pure silica core/silica clad, silica core/plastic clad fibers, but borosilicate glass fiber, ESKA™ plastic
optical fiber, fluoride fiber, chalcogenide fiber, erbium-doped fiber and polarization maintaining fiber as well.

to your technical and economic requisites.
The definition of a fiber optic assembly is “A length of fiber optic cable that has been terminated with a connector,
pigtail or other component.” This could be a single fiber cable terminated with industry standard connectors
on both ends and jacketed in flexible sheathing, to a multi-fiber design consisting of multiple inputs and/or
outputs, each with different cross-section areas and geometries, each requiring a custom machined endfitting
and a heavy duty outer jacket to protect the assembly from being crushed. |

FIBER OPTIC CABLES :
Pasternack's Fiber-optic cables consist of fine strands of optically pure glass and are designed carry digital information safely over long distances for RF & Microwave applications. Standard cable lengths are 1, 2, 3, 5 meters in length (62.5/125 Multi Mode and 9/125 Single Mode). |
|
| Fiber optic cables have a core diameter between 9µm and 200µm. They are useful to connect devices over long distances. But there are much higher costs due to ready-made modules and higher system costs. |
|
| Multimode, step-index optical fibers offer the most efficient and flexible delivery of high power laser beams. The correct components should be selected for minimizing beam quality degradation and optimum robustness. Smaller fibers tend to produce less degradation to beam quality but the minimum usable fiber size is limited by the quality of the laser beam, focusing optic and the numerical aperture (N.A.) of the fiber. Selection of the appropriate fiber type is an important consideration because the characteristics of the output beam will enhance or degrade the utility of the fiber optic delivered beam for different applications. The other components of the beam delivery system also impact performance: High power handling requires high quality end face surface finish and specially designed connectors that can withstand heating which comes from the absorption of spurious reflections or refractions at the fiber end faces. The fiber optic delivery system allows the laser beam to be transmitted in a small, flexible cable and is ideal when the laser beam must be delivered along a complex path or processing requires complicated manipulation of the beam delivery optics. |

Fiber optic cables can be made in different lengths with different type of connectors, such as SMA905, ST or FC/PC connectors. The fibers are also available for different wavelength regions, like Deep UV solarization resistant fibers, UV/VIS fibers and VIS/NIR fibers.
We offer different shielding, like Kevlar reinforced PVC sleeving with PTFE inner tubing (standard) or metal shielding with PVC-XY or PTFE inner tubing for higher temperature and more industrial applications.
Depending on the intended wavelength range a UV/VIS (200-800 nm) or a VIS/NIR (350-2000 nm) fiber is used. In the following table replace xx by respectively UV or IR. For deep UV use specify -SR (solarization resistant).

A patch cord or fiber jumper is an optical cable, used to connect ("patch-in") one electronic or optical device to another for signal routing. Devices of different types (i.e.: a switch connected to a computer, or switch to router)
are connected with patch cords. Patch cords are usually produced in many different colors so as to be easily distinguishable, and are relatively short, perhaps no longer than two meters. Patch cords can be as short as 3 inches or 8cm, to connect stacked components, or route signals through a patch bay or as much as twenty feet or 6m or more in length for snake cables. As length increases, cables are usually thicker, and/or made with more shielding, to prevent signal loss (attenuation) and the introduction of unwanted radio frequencies and hum (electromagnetic interference). Patch cords also come in hybrid varieties with one type of connector on one end and another type of connector on the other. Jumpers are used in the same manner as patch cords, to connect end devices or network hardware to the structured cabling system.
Fiber patch cords come in either single mode or multimode and should be selected to match the structured cabling system. The only exception to this is mode conditioning patch cords (also known as mode conditioning fiber jumpers) that are required when transmitting gigabit signals over 200m on 62.5 micron multimode fiber. |
