Newport XYZ Fiber Optic Positioner Plus Multimode Connectorized Fiber Coupler

Product Overview:

Newport FPR1-C1A Fiber Optic Positioner

The FPR1-C1A Fiber Optic Positioners provides four degrees of precision positioning for connectorized standard or polarization-preserving fibers. We’ve improved these mounts by adding high-resolution 100 TPI adjustment screws and including new larger diameter knobs with an integral hex hole for smooth adjustment with increased sensitivity. Fibers are aligned in four axes (XYZθZ). Axial Z motion is accomplished without rotation of the fiber by a knurled knob with a precision 80 TPI thread. Rotational motion about the fiber axis is achieved by rotating the FPH-CA Series Fiber Chucks (sold separately) which are graduated in 15° increments. The FPR1-C1A incorporates our new zero-free play XY mechanism ensuring accurate positioning and enhanced long-term stability, reducing drift over both time and temperature. New independent locks for each axis of translation and rotation securely lock the mechanism, not just the actuator screws, maintaining stable alignment. Engaging or disengaging each lock on these models has negligible influence on the other axes. All FP Series Fiber Optic Positioners have threaded holes in their base for post mounting.

Newport F-91-C1-T Multimode Fiber Coupler Sub-Assembly

The F-91-C1-T Multimode Fiber Coupler Sub-Assembly is the top half of Newport’s F-915 Single-Mode Fiber Coupler and is useful for connectorized multimode fiber coupling. It has high-resolution 100 TPI adjustment screws for smooth XY adjustment. Axial Z motion is accomplished without rotation of the fiber by a knurled knob with a precision 80 TPI thread. Rotational motion about the fiber axis is achieved by rotating the FPH-CA Series Fiber Chucks (sold separately) which are graduated in 15° increments. This sub-assembly can be used for single-mode fiber coupling when mounted on the F-91TS Tilt Stage, forming an assembly identical to our F-91-C1 Single-Mode Fiber Couplers. Since the tilt stage is common to all three couplers in this family, it is easy to convert from one type of coupler to another by swapping the bracket/fiber positioner assembly.
