March 3, 2005 Durham, NC -- ExceLight Communications, a provider of optical components and modules and the U.S.-based subsidiary of Japan's Sumitomo Electric Industries, will introduce its 10G XFP LR-2 transceiver at next week's OFC/NFOEC conference.
At booth 1801A in the Sumitomo Electric Pavilion, the company will demonstrate its 80-km SXP3101L2 XFP transceivers for SONET OC-192 LR-2 applications. According to the company, the modules use a well-designed, temperature-controlled 1550-nm EML TOSA and APD-ROSA along with an optimized electrical circuit to realize 80-km SMF transmission with <2-dB penalty. The company says the modules' highly efficient thermal design enables them to achieves low power dissipation of < 3.5 W, with operating temperatures ranging from - 5 to 70 C.
"The new transceivers demonstrate our commitment to providing reliable, high-performance pluggable transceivers for the widest range of datacom, telecom, and broadband applications," remarks Eddie Tsumura, vice president of engineering and marketing for ExceLight.
According to a press release, other products to be introduced at the conference include the company's SFP transceivers for DWDM applications, SFP transceivers over 18 CWDM wavelengths, TOSAs and ROSAs for 10G applications, Mini-TOSAs and mini-ROSAs for 10GBase-LX4 and 4FC, and dispersion-compensating fiber modules using Sumitomo's advanced specialty fibers
