Opticis Co. Ltd. Six-channel 6-Gbps CWDM OSA (TOSA/ROSA)
March 11, 2016
Opticis says it has delivered the first optical subassembly (OSA) that transmits six video or data channels over one multimode fiber. Each channel is capable of transmitting up to 6 Gbps.
With the driver and transimpedance amplifier embedded in the OSA and leveraging a ZIF-terminated flex circuit, the Opticis Six-Channel 6-Gbps CWDM OSA (PS51S-R0T-6) is a fully integrated TOSA/ROSA versatile enough to be designed in to a variety of systems, extending to applications such as in HDMI v2.0 and DP 1.2.
Other features include:
- Low-stress, highly flexible connection
- Low current consumption
- Max 200-m transmission distance
- Compatibility and support of both SC and LC receptacles
- Better eye pattern quality
- Directional freedom (right or left) of the FPCB connector.
The CWDM OSA is available in a module type packaging and/or with housing.
Judge's comment: "While high channel density OSAs are not new, putting six integrated into a small package suitable for 200 m over MMF for consumer apps is very innovative and pulls optical communications into a new field."
