optical-to-electrical converter shown with multi-mode
fiber jumper attached. |
Leading
Specifications
•
Frequency range to 5 GHz (6 GHz optical)
• 62.5 µm multi-mode fiber input
• Broad wavelength range:
|
500
nm – 870 nm |
(OE425
and OE525) |
|
950
nm – 1630 nm |

and OE555) |
•
High responsivity: 1.1 V/mW
• Low noise: 1.1 µW rms
These wide-band multi-mode
optical to-electrical converters are designed for measuring optical communications signals.
Their broad wavelength range and multimode input optics make these devices
ideal for applications including Gigabit Ethernet and Fibrechannel, as well as
SONET/SDH up to 2.5 Gb/s.
The OE425 and OE455 are ProBus®
modules compatible with WavePro
and Waverunner oscilloscopes as well as WaveMaster instruments when used
with a LPA-BNC adapter.
The OE525 and OE555 are ProLink®
modules compatible with WaveMaster,
SDA and DDA instruments.
Universal
Calibrated Reference Receivers
The O/E converters contain calibration data
that can be used to create optical reference receivers for SONET/SDH (up to OC48/STM16),
Fibre Channel, Gigabit Ethernet and other optical standards.
This feature is available when the O/E is used on a WaveMaster series
oscilloscope. This universal reference receiver supports any data rate up to 3 GHz and
remains calibrated on any channel of any WaveMaster.
