Designed for 200/280 µm fiber
Description
This high speed device is optimized at 810 nm
wavelength which is of particular interest for use in
radiation-hardened fiber. It operates in a wide
temperature range and delivers very high power to
200 µm core fiber, making it ideal in avionics and
military datacom applications.
