Introduction: Conventional MM Couplers/Splitters
The Multimode couplers/splitters, on this web-page, are typically
applied to applications, which use an "overfilled launch" (OFL). An OFL
example is the LED transmitter, typically used in 10Base and 100Base,
Ethernet, multimode, fiber links. An OFL fills the modes of the
multimode fiber. These multimode couplers/splitters work best with OFL
configurations.
NOTE: New, high-speed, multimode, fiber links (e.g. 1000Base-SX) use
lasers. Typically, these 850-nm sources are VCSELs (vertical cavity
surface emitting lasers). VCSELs do not provide an OFL into multimode
fiber; they do not fill the mode-structure of the multimode fiber. For
these applications, Fiberdyne recommends their new, "Laser Multimode" couplers/splitters.

FEATURES:
- Multimode
- Fiber Pigtails are Available
- Medium Duty (900 Micron) and Heavy Duty (3 mm Jacket)
- Packaged Couplers are Available
Fiberdyne Coupler/Splitter devices are bi-directional. If they are used,
to combine signals, then they are "couplers." If they are used, to
divide a signal, then they are "splitters."
Note: both terms are often used, interchangeably, to mean the same device.
