Laser Seeders in 19 in Rack

[Torrey, Jeff, Daniel]

We moved the Thorlabs ULN15TK and TeraXion Seeder Lasers into the Thorlabs RBX32 19" Electronics Rack. We connected SMA Cables from the lasers to the RBX-SMA. We need another SMA cable (like this), and could use 3 more because the cables we got were a bit long.

We connected the fiber outputs from the seeders to a ADAFCB4 mating sleeve. We need a Fiber 50:50 Beam Splitter on the mating sleeve output and a Faraday Isolator on the TeraXion ouput before the mating sleeve. Torrey purchased both of these.

See attached photo.

We hope to get and install these parts before turning on the lasers after the lab is fixed from the flooding.

We had some trouble shutting the rack. We had to push in some buttons and fins on the rails. The buttons, which probably should be pushed in first, are on the outside. The fins are on the inside of the rails.
