(Part of the Avago Technologies’ METRAK family)
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The AFCT-5944xxZ are high performance, cost effective
modules for serial optical data communications applications that range from 125 Mb/s to 2.7 Gb/s. They are
designed to provide SONET/SDH compliant links at 2488
Mb/s for short reach links.
• Multirate operation from 125 Mb/s to 2.7 Gb/s
• AFCT-5944LZ/ALZ: Links of 2 km with 9/125 µm single
mode fiber (SMF)
• Multisourced 2 x 10 package style with LC receptacle
• Single +3.3 V power supply
• Temperature range:
The modules are designed for single mode fiber and operate at a nominal wavelength of 1300 nm. They incorporate high performance, reliable, long wavelength optical
devices and proven circuit technology to give long life
and consistent service.
The transmitter section of the AFCT-5944LZ/ALZ incorporates a 1300 nm Fabry Perot (FP) laser. The transmitter
has full IEC 825 and CDRH Class 1 eye safety.
For each device the receiver section uses an MOVPE
grown planar SEDET PIN photodetector for low dark current and excellent responsivity.
A positive ECL logic interface simplifies interface to external circuitry.
The transceivers are supplied in the new industry standard 2 x 10 DIP style package with the LC fiber connector interface and is footprint compatible with SFF Multi
Source Agreement (MSA).
