SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- SDL, Inc. (NASDAQ:SDLI)
announced the introduction of the 8610-1550, a high-power, fiber-coupled
tunable laser system. This single-frequency laser is tunable over a 70 nm
wavelength range centered between 1540 nm and 1560 nm. The laser system
offers a fiber-coupled output of +8 dBm and an extremely low relative
intensity noise of less than -160 dB/Hz. These features and specifications
make the 8610-1550 an ideal source for externally modulated transmission
systems.
This system is one member of a new family of system level products from
SDL designed for the telecommunications industry. The 8610-1550 builds on
SDL's core competency in tunable single-frequency semiconductor laser sources,
coupled with proprietary fiber optics technology and packaging expertise. The
8610-1550 is intended for both the R&D and OEM communications markets, in
applications such as LIDAR, satellite communications, cable television, dense
wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM), and nonlinear studies. The system is
manufactured under compliance with ISO-9001.
SDL designs, manufactures and markets semiconductor optoelectronic
integrated circuits, semiconductor lasers, fiber optic related products, and
optoelectronic based systems. The Company's products are used in a diversity
of markets such as telecommunications, cable television, satellite
communications, printing, medical, data storage, consumer electronics, sensor,
defense, materials processing and instrument markets. |
