Company to Demonstrate Small Form Factor Coherent Micro-Modulator at OFC
It is intended that the Micro-MOD will align with the Optical
Internetworking Forum’s recently-announced project to develop an
Implementation Agreement for a “High
Baud Rate Coherent Modulator Function” (www.oiforum.com).
This new modulator is designed for applications in pluggable coherent
CFP2-ACO and CFP2-DCO modules as well as on transport linecards, and
joins the
NeoPhotonics Micro-MOD has a bandwidth over 40 GHz and exhibits low insertion loss in a small form factor modulator. By integrating the drivers inside the modulator package directly adjacent to the low power InP modulator chip, the total power requirement is 4.5 Watts. The Micro-MOD is designed to be used in 400/600 Gbps coherent transceiver modules and in line card applications which leverage its small size, high bandwidth and low power dissipation. The module can be configured with optional surface mount or flex connections, facilitating flexibility in component placement for critical size and PCB location constraints. To find out more about Coherent Modulators please refer to the blog post “Coherent IQ Modulator Performance.”
“When coupled with our high bandwidth Micro-ICR and ultra-narrow
linewidth tunable laser, this new micro-modulator represents a
significant step in providing small form factor capability for next gen
400/600 Gbps datacenter interconnect, core metro and long haul networks
for carriers worldwide,” said
