Request InfoModulight Inc.SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 24, 2006 -- Modulight has introduced 1550-nm Fabry-Perot (FP) and distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes for analog applications following the release of its analog 1310-nm FP and DFB laser diodes. These long-wavelength lasers can be combined with the 1310-nm lasers for bidirectional transmission over single fiber, or they can be used independently for longer spans than those obtained with 1310 nms. The new products can be used to increase the transmission capacity and reach of fiber optic links in wireless repeaters, video surveillance systems, radio...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra April 2024 IssueLaser Engine ModulesThe ML6600 from Modulight is a compact laser solution platform featuring customizable options including a specialized laser engine for flow cytometry, and distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) and...Photonics.com 2/23/2023Pump Laser ModuleThe 2X1000 mW dual-chip pump laser module from Coherent Corp. features 1000 mW of output power per fiber in a 10-pin butterfly package.
