Explanation of sales codes
CeramOptec ensures the highest quality and best transmission for fiber optic bundles, while working within the boundaries of your application. In order to optimize your bundle, we take several parameters into consideration: packing efficiency, fiber area efficiency, numerical aperture optimization, fiber transmission, reflections, and an error factor (which includes numerical aperture discrepancies). Our high quality fiber optic bundles can be made with any fiber and your choice of several configuration and construction possibilities. In addition, a number of connectors, including all standard connectors - or custom ferrules, machined in-house - are available.
In addition, CeramOptec's Optran UVNS (UV Non-Solarizing) fibers can be fused at the ends to eliminate inter-fiber spaces - while maintaining the fibers' NA and increasing transmission by 50%. Please see our PowerLightGuide Fused-End Bundles section for more information about our non-solarizing bundles for UV applications.

Notes
All bundles and assemblies are custom designed to meet your specifications. All standard connectors (SMA 905, SMA 906, ST, FC) are available - or custom ferrules, machined in-house to your specifications.
Refer to individual fiber data sheets for more information and to determine the best fiber for your application.
NA is measured at the 95% intensity angle.
