MAP DFB Laser

Product Datasheet (PDF, 0.17 MB)
The Multiple Application Platform (MAP) Distributed Feedback (DFB) Laser Cassette is an excellent source for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system testing. A combination of DFB lasers may be used to create an ITU grid in which optical frequency represented by a DFB laser corresponds to the transmitter in the optical network. The standard MAP DFB Laser can be selected to comply with the 50 GHz ITU grid in the C- and L-band (1527 to 1610 nm). The lasers typically show a side-mode suppression ratio of 40 dB and can be modulated internally from 0.2 to 400 kHz in square, sinusoidal and triangular waves.
Safety Information
- This optical source cassette, when installed in the MAP chassis, complies to CE requirements plus UL3101-1 and CAN/CSAC22.2 No.1010.1, meets the requirements of Class 3B in standard IEC 60825-1(2002), and complies with 21 CFR 1040.1 except deviations per Laser Notice No.50, July 2001.
