1420-1510nm Butterfly FBG Laser Diode

The FBGD series fiber-coupled laser diodes are FBG-type lasers, ideal for distributed or discrete Raman amplification applications (1420 to 1480 nm for C- and L-band coverage). The laser integrated a fiber grating for wavelength stability. It also provides up to 600 mW of power and high thermal efficiency to enable longer links and spans, lower bit-error rate (BER), and greater wavelength coverage for high speed and ultra-long-haul (ULH) systems.

Application context

Why this design is used

Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.

Laboratory optical integration

1420-1510nm Butterfly FBG Laser Diode: Laboratory optical integration depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1420-1470nm, 1471-1510nm wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (PM1550, 50/125) must match the connected components.

Fiber-optic instrumentation

Optical interface and fiber
Fiber Type: PM1550, 50/125 · Fiber Buffer: bare, 900um fiber
Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
Wavelength and loss budget
Wavelength: 1420-1470nm, 1471-1510nm
Check the Laser Diodes & Sources passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
