Optional 38 or 40 mm housing lengths by request. 1 X 1 meter Specify X meters Erbium Amplifier Components Insertion loss P1 - C DiCon's Tap/WDM is a hybrid component, that combines a thin film optical tap with a thin film WDM for use in fiber amplifiers. The Tap/WDM has lower insertion loss, is housed in a smaller package, and costs less than conventional approaches using separate components. Tap/WDM Erbium Amplifier 1.
