The first point is to go for the lighthub-6 since the price difference is very small. This will allow an expansion in the future with more lasers. The fiber is coupled to a fiber collimator fixed to a holder on a rail to allow for alignment with the beam splitter. Today I would have built it with a small xz stage for improved alignment or at least a sturdier holder of the collimator. There are some examples at Thorlabs. I have added the links to the details that we used in the current setup. It is important to get a good fixation of the collimator especially if you like to use the laser module in other microscopes and regularly shifts the fiber.
