The Wavepower handheld measuring instrument will measure simultaneously both power and wavelength of a laser diode, quickly and simply.
The crimp and cleave (C and C) technique particularly developed for these fibres from OFS combines simple, economical connector assembly with durable, standardised connector systems.
The assembly of a SMA or ST connector is possible in around 2 to 3min.
V-PIN connectors can be assembled in less than 1min.
The termination kits for the respective connector systems include all the assembly tools required.
No adhesive is necessary.
Typical applications for C and C connectors include: industrial networks and process control, data paths for audio and video, geophysical sensors, medical technology and also data communication in motor vehicles.
The European-wide Crimp and Cleave Service Centre established in mid-2003 by Laser Components has proven itself in every respect.
Services such as exchanging diamonds can be accomplished within a few days.
