Small form factor for 10Gbit/s Ethernet module
Emcore Corp has released a small form factor version of its successful 10GBase-LX4 (LX4) module, used in 10Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications.
This product marks the continued expansion of Emcore's parallel VCSEL and LX4 optical modules for the 300m multimode market into the long-reach 10Gbit/s application space.
The ETU-9C00-SFF is a multipurpose full-band tunable optical transceiver module for 10Gbit/s DWDM long reach telecom and datacom applications.
The design provides wave-locked 50GHz channel spacing on the ITU-grid and is tunable across the entire C- band.
It is suited for high performance telecomms applications that require SDH STM-64, SONET OC-192, or 10Gbase-ZR transmission.
"We are excited about quickly expanding our DWDM product portfolio with this full C-Band tunable product for the 100km regime", says Stephen Krasulick, R and D Director at Emcore Fibre Optics Division.
"We believe this is the first commercially available product to integrate full band tuning at 50GHz spacing into the 300pin small form factor package".
"This product allows our customers to take the next step in packaging density, while maintaining very high performance with fast microsecond-range tuning".
The Mach-Zehnder transmitter supports zero chirp and negative chirp options, and supports applications requiring less than 2dB dispersion penalty through 100km of fibre.
The design is fully compliant with the 300-pin SFF multisource agreement as well as the European Union's RoHS 6 requirements.
According to CIR, a leading industry analyst firm, tunable lasers will be the fastest growing major segment of the components market, reaching almost US $1 billion by 2012.
Emcore's C-Band tunable ETU-9C00-SFF is currently sampling.
It will be followed quickly by the full L-Band tunable ETU-9L00-SFF in Q2, 2007.
