J740 converts fast fibre-coupled signals
Highland Technology
J740 optical-to-electrical converter
Highland Technology has introduced the model J740 fast fibre-coupled optical-to-electrical converter.
Housed in a rugged, compact, extruded aluminum enclosure, the J740 performs wideband analogue conversion of fast fibre-coupled signals from DC to more than 1GHz.
Three versions are available covering 850nm, 1,310nm and 1,550nm wavelengths.
Units feature a calibrated conversion gain of 1V/mW (0.5V/mW into 50ohms) and are compatible with single and multi-mode fibre.
Optical input signals are accepted through a standard ST or FC fibre-optic connector with electrical output signals conveyed through a gold-plated SMB jack.
The J740 can be used wherever stable, ultra-low jitter o/e conversion is required.
Common applications include: high-speed modulated analogue and digital communications systems; high-speed data links; high-speed fibre-optic test and measurement applications; high-speed fibre-coupled laser evaluation and qualification; and high-speed photonics.
The J740 is compatible with the Highland Technology model J720 and J724 electrical/optical converters and the company's VME-packaged electrical/optical converter products.
