FPS-002 Fiber Phase Shifter

The FPS-002 is an all fiber device that shifts or modulates phase by up to 75π at frequencies from DC to 20 kHz.

The FPS-002 is a small, piezo-driven phase shifter that works by stretching a length of fiber. It has a lower half- wave voltage than the FPS-001 (~2V compared to 10-20V). Like the FPS-001, it is an all fiber design and offers the benefits of low loss and back reflection. Two different size packages are available to accommodate the bend diameter requirements of different fibers.
