Newport’s Single-Mode Fibers and Patch cables are all-glass fibers supporting single-mode light propagation for operating wavelengths of near UV 300, visible 488/514, 633, infrared 780, 820, 980, 1060 or 1300/1550 nm. Corning SMF-28 fiber is included here.
These low attenuation, step-index fibers have a uniform core refractive index and a matched-clad profile.
Typical applications include sensors, instrumentation, device pigtailing, and light delivery.
Standard patch cords are available in several different lengths and connector types. These fibers have a 900 µm jacket surrounded by a layer of Aramid yarn for extra protection. A PVC cable jacket provides additional environmental protection.
For custom options please contact a Newport Applications Engineer.

The following volume discount schedule is automatically applied when ordering bare optical fiber: 6 - 50 m with 15 %, 51- 1,000 m with 22 %, > 1,000 m with 25 %. Discount only applicable towards continuous length of fiber.
