  • FC Fiber Connection
  • Two Axis Linear Movement for Precise Fiber Alignment
  • Optional Kinematic Tilt Version
  • Posts and Post Holders Required for Mounting

Fiber Optic Alignment Mounts can translate optical fibers terminating in an FC connection. Useful for telecom positioning and for aligning FC Fiber Optic Patchcords, they feature ±1.5mm travel in both the X and Y-axis. The Differential Micrometer models feature 2.5 micron resolution while the kinematic version (#55-478) provides an additional ±2° tilt adjustment on each axis.

Note: Posts and Post Holders are required for mounting to a breadboard.
