High Power Circulator

Neptec’s Polarization Insensitive, high power Optical Circulator is a non-reciprocal device that routes incoming signals from any port to the next. An optical circulator transmits the signal from port 1 to port 2, while simultaneously transmitting signal from port 2 to port 3. Neptec’s high power optical circulators are used in advanced fiber amplifier systems, laser pump diodes and optical fiber sensors.

Neptec offers a wide range of customization options including power handling, fiber type, polarization maintaining (PM), and packaging. If the standard circulator below do not fit your application, we would be glad to review your specifications and quote a custom high-power circulator for you.
