JDSU 10Gb/s Single Drive Modulator Integrated PD C And L Band X5 21067769-002

The JDSU Agile Optical Components family includes modulators, switches,

attenuators and tunable filters. These products provide the basis for spectrally

efficient DWDM transmission utilizing dispersion tolerant modulation, channel

monitoring, wavelength switching, remote power control and dynamic channel

selection. They support a wide range of flexible functionalities at lower

operational expenses for the Agile Optical Network. In addition, we have a

complete line of tunable lasers assemblies and sub-assemblies in our Agile

Transmission Module family.

JDSU X5 and Z5 single drive 10 Gb/s modulators with integrated photodiode are

ideally suited for use in long reach (LR)/ very long reach (VR) Metro applications

as well as in long haul (LH) transmission. The X5 is a fixed zero-chirp solution

and the Z5 is a fixed ±0.7 chirp solution, both packaged identically. The small

package form factor makes the X5/Z5 compatible with the 300 pin MSA

transponder footprint.

The X5 and Z5 modulators operate over the C and L band. Their low drive

voltages make them compatible with low power dissipating driver solutions such

as GaAs driver technology. In addition to providing bias control feedback, the new

enhanced photodiode is capable of power monitoring for control of the

transmitter’s modulated output power.
