Fibre Optic Circulator 3 port or 4 port
The 3 or 4 port Fiber optic Circulator is a compact, high performance light wave component that transmits the incoming signal from port 1 to port 2, and another incoming signal from port 2 to port 3 simultaneously. The component provides high isolation, low insertion loss, low PDL, low PMD and excellent environmental stability. It is widely used in combination with fiber gratings and other reflective components in DWDM systems, high speed systems and bi-direction communication systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. We are looking for a 3 port circulator array to mount into a equipment cabinet in our server room.
Q1. We are looking for a 3 port circulator array to mount into a equipment cabinet in our server room.
A. We have 19" 1RU racks loaded with x8 3 port 1310nm, 1550nm or both types of circulators. All ports are on the front panel for easy access. We recommend having port 2 (network port) with SC/APC connectors as the below pictures. The light path for each circulator will be port 1-> port 2 and port 2 -> port 3.
Q2. We are using an 8CH 1RU rack CWDM mux/demux between our 2 offices. Currently we use one fibre pair to transmit and receive. We are running out of fibres between the two offices, is there any solution to release one fibre for anther application without disturbing the current setup?
A. Yes, we have a product that comes with 8CH CWDM mux and demux that utilizes a single fibre to transmit and receive. Using our product you can release one fibre for your other application, if you are interested please email us for further information.
