Single-mode modules upgrade legacy links
A new matched pair of long-wavelength single-mode fibre-optic transmitter and receiver modules are designed to upgrade existing multimode links.
A new matched pair of long-wavelength single-mode fibre-optic transmitter and receiver modules are designed to upgrade existing multimode links The PDL-1315M/TM transmitter module is constructed using a 1300nm edge emitting LED that efficiently couples its optical output into single mode optical fibre

The Wavepower handheld measuring instrument will measure simultaneously both power and wavelength of a laser diode, quickly and simply.
The PLD-2315TM/M receiver module is made up of a 75um diameter InGaAs PIN photodiode optimised for high response in the 1300nm wavelength region and has been teamed with a low noise TIA.
The PLD-1315 and PLD-2315 series are designed to be backward compatible with industry standard sources and detectors used for single mode fibre applications.
This form factor allows designers to offer single mode fibre performance in applications that currently use short wavelength (850nm) devices in identical form factor packages.
A link upgrade from multimode to single mode fibre can be done as easily as swapping out the optical components on the printed circuit board.
