This In-Line Fiber Optic Filter Holder allows the insertion of optical filters within a fiber optic pathway. The connectors of the filter holder assembly are compatible with WPI’s range of fiber optic jumper cables and can be coupled using SMA connectors.
Filters with outer diameters from 8 to 25.4 mm and thicknesses from 2 to 10 mm can be accomodated. The design limits lateral and axial movement of the filter when secured in the holder.
Two fiber optic collimators are internally mounted in the holder to pass collimated light through the filter and then refocus the filtered light into the aperture of the output fiber. Spectral range will be largely limited by the bandpass of the optical fibers (from UV to near IR using WPI UV-enhanced cables).
