Fibre-optic test equipment developer Calmar Optcom has introduced an ultrafast fibre laser designed for test applications of Sonet/STM components

Fibre-optic test equipment developer Calmar Optcom has introducedan ultrafast fibre laser designed for test applications ofSonet/STM components. The new laser, the PSL-40, was developed inresponse to a renewed interest from researchers for testequipment designed for the emerging 40Gbit/s Sonet/STMtransmission speed.

The new fibre laser provides researchers withthe flexibility to rapidly tune the laser wavelength through the1550nm range eliminating the need for a multiplicity of DWDM testsources.

The laser is characterised by adjustable repetitionrates and ultra low timing jitter to meet even the most stringenttest requirements.

Calmar's President and CTO, Tony Lin,states: 'Fibre lasers are superior to current lasertechnology in several areas.

They have the ability to producevery short pulses, typically less than 1 picosecond.

Light pulsesthat last for only a few picoseconds enable researchers tosignificantly better understand the behaviour of theiroptoelectronic devices and communications systems'. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics....
