AOI Introduces 1310-nm Butterfly-Packaged Lasers.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers NFOEC NFOEC National Fiber Optical Engineer Conference NFOEC National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference 2002 SUGAR LAND, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 22, 2002 Applied Optoelectronics Inc. (AOI AOI Area Of Interest AOI Automated Optical Inspection AOI Art of Illusion (3D modeling software) AOI Associated Oregon Industries AOI Angle Of Incidence AOI Age of Innocence (David Hamilton book, also a band) ) today announced the availability of a new line of cooled 1310-nm DFB DFB acronym for dark, firm, dry meat. Called also dark cutting beef. lasers. These lasers offer high output powers (to 25 mW) and excellent distortion characteristics (CSO (Chief Security Officer) The person in charge of all staff members who are responsible for promulgating, enforcing and administering security policies for all systems within an enterprise or division. < -57 dB), making them suitable for both forward- and return-path CATV (Community Antenna TV) The original name for cable TV. It used a single antenna at the highest location in the community in order to deliver a quality signal to homes in areas with hilly terrain or other interference. applications. Available immediately, the DFB-1310-BF series is housed in an industry standard 14-pin butterfly package with OC-48 pin compatibility. With their integrated isolators, these lasers resist signal distortion over links reaching beyond 40 kilometers. An integrated TE cooler maintains the laser's stability over an operating range extending from -20 to 65 degrees Celsius. These lasers are offered with output power levels up to 20mW. Available for both digital and analog applications, the digital lasers can be directly modulated at 2.5 Gbps. The analog versions can carry a full channel count in forward path applications over the 50 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. to 860 MHz frequency range. Both are cost-effective sources for intermediate- and long-reach applications. These lasers complement AOI's line of uncooled 1310-nm DFB and Fabry-Perot laser devices, giving the company a complete line of cutting-edge devices for short-, intermediate-, and long-reach applications. "Until now, only a handful of companies have been able to produce lasers meeting the rigorous requirements of high channel-count analog transmission systems. AOI's position as a world-class producer of communications laser diodes is enhanced by this new line of products," said Stefan Murry, AOI's marketing director. "AOI's devices, produced in our own fabrication fabrication (fab´rikā´sh  n),n the construction or making of a restoration. facility using our proprietary Molecular Beam Epitaxy A technique that "grows" atomic-sized layers on a chip rather than creating layers by diffusion. technology, have demonstrated superior performance compared to numerous competitors. In addition, manufacturing advances have made these devices available at a cost that significantly enhances the value proposition for our customers." AOI will demonstrate its family of lasers for telecommunications and CATV applications at the upcoming National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (NFOEC) in Dallas, Texas, from Sept. 16-18 in booth #1116. About AOI Applied Optoelectronics Inc. (AOI) is a next-generation vertically integrated optoelectronics company that designs, grows, processes and packages advanced lasers for the telecommunications and spectroscopy markets.
