Optical transceivers shrink into RJ45 packages
Focus EDL has a new series of miniature optical transceivers designed to provide designers of network equipment with a high-performance ultrasmall option for Ethernet and Fibre Channel applications.
Produced by Stratos Optical, a product line of Emerson Network Power Connectivity Solutions, the RJ series provides a complete transceiver module in an RJ45 package.
The RJ Series consists of 850nm devices for the Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet markets, and a 1310nm product to cater for long-wave Gigabit Ethernet requirements.
According to Stratos, the transceivers are fully compliant with IEEE Ethernet and ANSI Fibre Channel standards.
Operating from a single 3.3V supply, the devices are available in surface-mount or through-hole versions and are compatible with wave solder and aqueous washable systems.
"Stratos is well known for its innovative product design combining advances in performance with miniaturisation and these transceivers in an RJ45 format are great examples of the company's technology leadership", says Geoff Philpot, Focus EDL's Managing Director.
"We see an increasing demand for smaller, lighter and more powerful transceivers for applications where overall equipment size matters andssss these RJ45 packaged devices will create a lot of interest among system designers".
