Opnext Introduces XFP with Increased Case Temperature Capabilities at FOE 2005.EATONTOWN, N.J. & TOKYO -- Enhanced 1310nm XFP XFP 10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable Module XFP Extra-Fine-Pitch XFP Ten Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable Product Family Supports Highest Case Temperature on the Market; Provides High-Density Transmission and Pluggability for Telecom, Datacom and Storage Customers Opnext, Inc., a global leader in high-performance optical components, today announced the addition of increased case temperature capabilities to the XFP 10G Serial Transceiver product family. With the addition of this product series, the TRF TRF thyrotropin releasing factor. 50x2, Opnext's XFP product family provides enhanced high-density transmission, pluggability and thermal design flexibility for telecom, datacom and storage customers. The TRF50x2 product series is a 1310nm XFP capable of operating in the case temperature range from -5 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius. This reflects a case temperature improvement of up to ten degrees Celsius hotter than any conventional XFP available in the market. By supporting the 85 degrees Celsius case temperature, together with its very low power consumption of maximum 2.0W, this product will enable customers whose systems are space-constrained and have less thermal capabilities to benefit from a module that can not only withstand a higher case temperature but also enables higher density on a single board. "As the industry moves to 10G, there is increased need to add multiple modules on a single line card or to fit the modules to very constrained space, resulting in higher ambient temperatures around the module," Hirokuni Tsuji, senior director of product marketing for Opnext. "The Opnext XFP meets our customers need by providing them increased flexibility to design their systems to enable higher density on a single board." The Opnext XFP is XFP MSA (Metropolitan Service Area) An urban area with at least 50,000 people plus surrounding counties. There are 306 MSAs and 428 RSAs (rural service areas) in the U.S. MSAs and RSAs are used to allocate cellular licenses. compliant, Hot Z pluggable (pluggable though front panels of system equipment), includes an XFI electrical interface, and is capable of maintaining data rates up to 11.3Gbit/s utilizing TOSA Tosa Historic region of the Japanese island of Shikoku. It dates at least to the Heian period, when Ki no Tsurayuki (868?–945?), editor of Japan's first imperially commissioned poetry anthology, wrote a fictional diary drawing on his experiences as governor of Tosa. with the state-of-the-art Opnext uncooled multiple quantum well A quantum well is a potential well that confines particles, which were originally free to move in three dimensions, to two dimensions, forcing them to occupy a planar region. (MQW MQW Multiple Quantum Well ) directly-modulated DFB DFB acronym for dark, firm, dry meat. Called also dark cutting beef. LD chip with extremely high temperature operation capability. These same TOSA's can be used in 300pin, XENPAK and X2 modules. Product samples of the TRF50x2 will be available in Q1 2005. Opnext will be exhibiting at Fiber Optics fiber optics, transmission of digitized messages or information by light pulses along hair-thin glass fibers. Each fiber is surrounded by a cladding having a high index of refractance so that the light is internally reflected and travels the length of the fiber Expo 2005, Tokyo Big Site, January 19 - 21.
