XLMD-MSA-compliant Transmission and Reception Devices for 43Gbps Optical Transmission

XLMD-MSA-Compliant Transmission and Reception Devices for 43Gbps Optical Transmission
FU-697SEA / FU-397SPP
High extinction ratio and wide, dynamic range supported by transceiver set
Overview
In recent years, Internet traffic has rapidly increased, which has accelerated the need for communication networks with larger transmission capacities. Operation up to 43 Gbps*1 and error correction code are required in order for optical transmission/reception devices to be used within the optical transmission interface of a trunk line network or between routers. For the first time in the world*2, we provide, as a set, a transmission device for optical transmission compliant with industry-standard XLMD-MSA and an interconnected reception device. In this way, we are helping to popularize 43Gbps optical communication devices.

*1 A unit of communication speed that is able to transmit 1 billion digital codes per second.

Features
World First*2 ― FU-697SEA XLMD-MSA-compliant transmission device for 43Gbps optical transmission
The world's first transmission device to comply with the shared specifications based on XLMD-MSA. A 1-chip IC driver and the modulator integrated-type laser, contained in a package that complies with MSA specifications.

FU-697SPP Original bias circuit realizes high extinction ratio to contribute to stable communications
Our company's original bias circuit, which supplies the DC bias voltage to the modulator independently from the outside, is installed within the device to reduce the driver IC's load and raise the extinction ratio.
FU-397SPP-Japan's first XLMD-MSA-compliant PD-TIA reception device with a wide dynamic range
This XLMD-MSA-compliant PD-TIA reception device feature a reception performance with a wide dynamic range of 15.4dB (standard value).

43Gbps optical transmitter/receiver for VSR
 
Future Development
As we supply the XLMD-MSA-compliant transmission and reception devices as a set, these key devices will further expand the market by realizing greater compactness and lower electric power consumption in optical transmitters/receivers. In the future, we will continue to enhance our product line-up by flexibly responding to needs such as increasing the transmission distance and varying in the types of modulation.
