The module consists of a PIN photodetector, a low noise
preamplifier, a connectorized single-mode fibre pigtail and a
hermetic metal package with coplanar output. Optimized for
use in 10 Gb/s long haul applications, either as a discrete
device or within a transponder, using NRZ Modulation.
Features:
• High sensitivity, -20.5dBm typical
• Surface mount MSA compliant
• Low capacitance high speed InGaAs PIN detector
• Hermetically sealed
• Designed to exceed the requirements of Bellcore
GR468-CORE
• Single mode fibre tail
• Compatible with AT10GC APD Receiver
• Output stage limits at 400m Vp-p differential
eliminating the need for a post amplifier
• Low Power Consumption, only 235mW
• RoHS 5/6 compliant
