Multimode Graded-Index
Our graded index fibre optic feedthroughs are constructed with 62.5/125µm core/clad graded-index multimode fibres, they are designed for vacuum applications requiring fibre optic connection from inside a vacuum system to external equipment. The fibre is hermetically sealed into a stainless steel shell using the latest in glass bonding technology and terminates on both vacuum and air side with standard SMA 905 terminations.
Ultra High Vacuum polyimide buffered optical fibres are available to meet the demands of UHV environments.
All of our optical fibre is constructed as a core-cladding composite. The core, or the filament that guides the light consists of a thin strand of high transmission fused silica. The cladding consists of an outer layer of doped, lower refractive index fused silica. This two layer design tightly confines the light to the central core of the fibre which in turn delivers a maximum amount of light at the far end. We also closely control the fibre diameter during the drawing process, allowing the fibre to centre well in connectors and boast a low loss rate.
• Graded-Index multimode fibre is a great choice for bridging the gap between singlemode and step-index multimode fibres, giving up some bandwidth for ease of termination and light launch.
• Lower cost than singlemode.
• Primarily used for data communication.
• Less useful for power delivery applications.
• Recommended for Graded-Index applications requiring medium distance (2-15km) fibre lengths.
