Semiconductor Optical Amplifier Butterfly package 1550nm 23dB Gain

MSOA-1550-Switch Semiconductor Optical Switch

Description

The semiconductor optical switch,MSOA-1550-Switch, addresses new areas in the opticalswitch market. The technology is based on well‐known semiconductor lasertechnology and packaging techniques, and offers a low‐cost alternative to conventional fiber switch solutions. SOA can operate at any wavelength from 1520-1650nm window and it is very suitable for optical blocking shutter or modulation with 65dB extinction ratio.

The devices are packaged in a butterfly package providing high coupling efficiency, lowpolarization sensitivity, and high saturation output power. MSOA-1550-Switch can be usedto extend telecommunication or ns speed optical switch links by providing 18 ‐25dB gain, <2.0 dB polarization sensitivity,and 10dBm saturation power. Switch of both continuous wave (CW) signals andmodulated signals is possible.

Features

• 40G and 100G C‐Band blocking shutter or modulation
• 14‐Pin MSA package
• Low Noise Figure & Low polarization dependence
