Available in die-cut chip format (1xxD-25I-LCT11-50x) and TO package (1xxD-25I-LT5xC-50x), MACOM's new 25G DFB lasers are designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to 85°C over transmission distances of 2 to 10 kilometers. These new 25G lasers will meet stringent operating requirements while also helping to expand the bandwidth of wireless infrastructure for high-speed 5G connectivity.
MACOM's new range of industrial-grade 25G lasers leverages MACOM's patented EFT technology, which, at commercial-scale manufacturing levels, could enable groundbreaking cost efficiencies and product uniformity. MACOM believes this high-volume production capability sets it apart as a leading supplier of 25G lasers across a range of cloud data center and wireless networking infrastructure applications.
“MACOM’s new 5G LTE-optimized 25G laser family builds on our comprehensive portfolio of 5G-enabling technologies and further demonstrates the value of EFT in achieving production efficiencies that align with industry supply and cost structure needs,” said Dr. Fang Wang, Vice President and Business Line Manager, Lightwave at MACOM. “For customers transitioning their 10G wireless fronthaul infrastructure to 25G, MACOM can provide the 25G lasers, complementary components, and application expertise to help accelerate deployment time and reduce costs.”.
MACOM's industrial temperature-grade 25G lasers are available as samples now, with production availability planned for 2019.
MACOM will showcase its 25G laser portfolio at the European Optical Communication Conference (ECOC), Stand # 579, in Rome, Italy, from September 24-26.
