The collimator provides a well collimated beam but with a reduced power level. It
also features the same quick release mechanism as in the standard fiber coupler,
allowing quick and easy swap between the two different types of accessories.

4.8. Application Ideas
There are four 4-40 threaded holes on the front panel of the light source house to
allow the integration of Thorlabs’ 30 mm Cage System. The SM1 internal thread in
the front lens tube also provides compatibility with Thorlabs’ SM1 Lens Tubes and
optical mounts.
Figure 13 illustrates how an SLS201L/SLS202L light source can be integrated with
a 30 mm cage system and SM1 lens tube.
