2D and Linear Fiber Arrays (Download PDF)
Description
Arrayed Fiberoptics' Fiber Arrays provide a means to couple fibers to lens arrays, arrays of active components, and other optical devices. They provide precise, compact fiber positioning, thermal stability, and flexibility of fiber type and array configurations, including both 2-dimensional (2D) and linear arrays.
Advantages
- Low cost
- Extremely small size and high density
- 2-dimensional or linear array configurations
- Extremely precise positioning accuracy
- High reliability
- Strain relief packaging
Applications
Fiber Arrays may be used anywhere a fiber interface is desired. Typical applications include coupling to array devices, such as microlens arrays, arrays of active components, optical cross-connect switches, etc.
