Stratos Lightwave introduces family of ATM OC-48 2.488Gbps (2.5 gigabit) small form factor optical transceivers
Stratos Lightwave LLC announces the availability of its new line of small form factor (SFF) optical transceivers for ATM OC-48 applications. Stratos offers these ATM OC-48 SFF transceivers in response to the growing demand for high data rate products in the expanding Metropolitan and Wide Area Networking markets. Running at data rates up to 2.488Gbps, these transceivers are high-performance integrated duplex data links for bi-directional communication over multimode or single mode optical fiber. These devices are compatible with the industry-standard LC fiber optic interface, and offer double the port density of conventional SC optical transceivers.
Stratos ATM OC-48 transceivers are available in four different versions: One for 850 nm multimode applications, and three for 1300nm single-mode applications. The 850 nm version uses a low-cost VCSEL (vertical cavity surface-emitting laser) to deliver cost-effective performance at data rates up to 2.488Gbps. The three 1300nm versions all provide high-reliability communication over single-mode optical fiber which meets or exceeds existing ATM OC-48 requirements. The three different 1300nm version are rated at maximum transmission distances of 2km, 10km, and 20km.
Stratos SFF OC-48 transceivers feature TTL signal detect output and transmitter disable input. Their low-profile enclosures fit mezzanine card systems, and they are wave solderable and aqueous washable. Operation is from a single +3.3-volt power supply. These transceivers also meet all applicable safety certifications including Class 1 Laser Safety Compliance, UL 1950, IEC-825-1, and compliance with FDA Radiation Performance Standards, 21 CFR Subchapter J.
Pricing for Stratos SFF ATM OC-48 optical transceivers depend on specific model, options specified, and quantity ordered. Typical pricing is less than $500 each in production quantities. Samples are now available from stock. For additional information contact Stratos Lightwave LLC, Optoelectronic Products, 7444 W. Wilson Ave, Chicago, IL USA 60706-4549.
