Eblana Photonics has released a breakthrough laser product targeted at single mode 4Gbit/s Fibre Channel applications.

This product series, the EP1310-FC4X and its TOSA version, the EP1310-FC4X-OSA, expands on Eblana's recently announced LDM product series for 10GBase-LX4 applications and the 1310nm DFB laser replacement, the EP1310-DM laser series which is targeted at price sensitive fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) GEPON PX20 and GPON applications.

"One of the key challenges facing the communications industry today is not just the high price but the high total ownership cost of quality components for mass market enterprise and access applications", said James O'Gorman, Eblana Photonics CEO.

"The best way to reduce overall system cost is through the use of price sensitive, high quality components with uniform, repeatable characteristics".

Daniel Tine, Eblana's Head of North American Business Development and Sales stated: "The FC4X product series meets all requirements of the Fibre Channel protocol and, like all Eblana products, it is not only aggressively priced but has unbeatable performance that improves our customers' first pass system manufacturing yield and profitability".
