Alfalight, Inc. today announced the release of its next generation, high-performance Combined Power Module II (CPM-II). The CPM-II incorporates the high brightness of the previous-generation CPM and adds precision wavelength control through integrated temperature stabilization, making it ideal for pumping fiber lasers at 976 nm. The CPM-II is available with 25 watts of output power and a 200 micron (0.22 NA) output fiber for fiber laser applications. A version with 21 watts in a 6+1:1 pump/signal configuration (with 5/125 micron signal/pump fiber) is also available for fiber amplifier and LIDAR systems.

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announced today that it will begin sample shipment of its 2.5 Gbps・100 km ML9xx43 series semiconductor laser diode for use in optical communication beginning September 1, 2005. The diode is capable of operating at a range of temperatures between –20C-+95C, the widest range in the industry.
With the dissemination of ADSL, Fiber To The Home (FTTH), and other high-speed, high-volume communication services for the home, there has been a rush to expand the communications network in metropolitan areas to keep up with sudden increases in communication traffic. Demand has been created for a compact, high-density mounted, low-energy consuming optical communication device for use in metropolitan areas as well as semiconductor laser diodes capable of high speed data transmission at high temperatures without the need for a temperature controller. In 2003, Mitsubishi Electric responded to this demand by producing the ML9xx40 series, a 2.5 Gbps/100km semiconductor laser diode capable of operating between 0C-+85C.
Quest Controls has introduced a new software program called NANAâ„¢ , Near-end Automatic Network Authenticator, for FTTP and FTTN applications.
Installation technicians use NANAâ„¢ at a customer site to quickly, efficiently, and accurately test and verify that the fiber network is connected to the prem site and data is flowing in both directions. NANAâ„¢ is simple to use and all testing can be done in a few minutes.
Omron is introducing new versions of its Multiplexer/ Demultiplexer devices for metro edge, storage and access networks, including applications in CWDM systems, GbE (LX4 Transceivers/transponders), Passive Optical Networks (B, E, G-PON). The company’s innovative range of fibre-optic switching components will also be on display.
Sumitomo Electric Lightwave announced today the introduction of a segmented ribbon design that allows 12 fiber ribbons to be easily divisible into three 4- fiber ribbon subunits without requiring tools. The ribbon design impacts the FTTH/FTTP 4-fiber branching network topologies, serving 4 homes or premises, by significantly facilitating easier, faster, and more cost-effective deployment.
The 3×4-fiber modular ribbon, which is being incorporated into Sumitomo’s ribbon cable product line, can be used throughout the feeder, distribution, and drop segments of the FTTH/FTTP network. Rather than splicing one single optical fiber at a time, installers can now easily branch off 4 fibers originating from the hub, terminal or closure to quickly and easily mass splice to an existing 4-fiber ribbon cable or pre-connectorized fanout. The new 3×4-fiber ribbon design increases time savings by over 50% since advancements in mass fusion splicing technology make it possible to splice multiple fiber ribbons almost as quickly as a single fiber, while maintaining comparable splice loss.
Passave is introducing a pair of Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) devices, the PAS5211 optical line terminal (OLT) and the PAS6211 optical network terminal (ONT), that will deliver 2.5-gigabit-per-second bandwidth for GPON-compatible FTTH equipment. Using Passave`s field-proven GigaPASSTM architecture, the two new products will provide interoperability for GPON central-office (CO) equipment and GPON customer premise equipment (CPE).
“This introduction is consistent with our goal of making low-cost FTTH broadly available,” said Ariel Maislos, president of Passave, Inc. “We already have established our gigabit EPON (GE-PON) technology as a volume leader in Japan, today`s leading high-volume FTTH market. These new devices will leverage our success in developing gigabit PON devices for emerging FTTH markets, such as North America, where service providers are in the process of evaluating ITU-compatible GPON as an FTTH deployment technology.”
Luxtera announced today that it has solved the longstanding problem of building ultra-high-density optical modulators into mass-produced silicon chips. For the first time, it is possible to manufacture optical modulators much smaller than electrical drivers with an equivalent data-rate using an industry-standard CMOS fabrication process.
The new Luxtera Ring Modulator delivers more than 10 gigabits per second (Gbit/s) of bandwidth with a radius of only 30 microns. Multiple modulators can be integrated in a single optical interface, making 100Gbit/s and 1 terabit per second (Tbit/s) achievable in the foreseeable future. The modulators will be integrated with standard digital circuitry. Luxtera CMOS Photonics™ will give computer and communications OEMs the performance benefits of optical-fiber communications, delivered with the economics of silicon.
Peleton, a privately held developer and manufacturer of multi-wavelength lasers for applications in optical test and measurement, networking and photonic sensing, today announced the availability of the TM3050C multi-wavelength laser source.
The TM3050C is a compact, flat-spectrum, high-power laser offering significant cost-per-wavelength savings over traditional multi-wavelength test solutions. The versatile laser finds applications in manufacturing, research, development, validation and field deployment environments.
Kaiser Optical Systems announced today that it has developed a proprietary high throughput (HT) process for volume phase holographic gratings for telecom and other applications. The new process achieves very high levels of film index modulation while maintaining low levels of noise and scatter. The HT process will provide customers with an unmatched combination of high diffraction efficiency, high dispersion, low polarization dependent loss (PDL), and broad spectral bandwidth.
Valdor Fiber Optics Inc. (“Valdor”) (VFO-V) wishes to announce the launching of a new Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) and Fiber-to-the-Premises (FTTP) product called Tri HeptoWave TM WDM 1310/1490/1550 add/drop. Based on the patented and proven Impact Mount ™
Terahertz Technologies Inc.has announced the introduction of its LTX-5520 Electrical/Optical – Optical/Electrical converter pair. The LTX-5520 enables the conveyance of sixteen independent channels of digital information over fiber optic links ranging from meters to more than 10 kilometers.
The Agilent 86038B Photonic Dispersion and Loss Analyzer combines speed and accuracy for complete testing of optical fiber and components, providing the ideal instrument for both development and manufacturing. Measurements are based on the industry-standard modulation phase shift method (MPS) and the modular implementation permits customization to test needs.
With a single device connection and at the touch of a button, the 86038B measures spectral group delay (GD) and chromatic dispersion (CD), differential group delay (DGD) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD), insertion loss or gain (IL) and polarization dependent loss (PDL). In addition, it makes very accurate fiber length measurements. Advanced matrix analysis also provides 2nd-order PMD.
Bookham has introduced a new high power un-cooled multimode pump laser module for fiber laser pumping. The pump module combines high power with high reliability and stable performance. The new multimode pump laser module allows a significant step forward in the design of current and next generation fiber laser systems by providing increased brightness at lower cost and with high reliability.
