20/40/50 GHz LN Fiber Optical Transmitter/Converter – Turnkey
The EOCV series Fiber Optical Transmitters (Electrical-to-Optical Converters) provide high-fidelity analog and digital optical signals from electrical inputs, supporting a wide frequency range of DC to 20 and 50 GHz. These user-friendly turnkey modules feature a corresponding Thin Film Lithium Niobate Fiberoptic Modulator (TLNM), a DFB laser with driver, an automatic bias controller, high-performance control circuits, and a DC power supply, all integrated into a convenient plug-and-play benchtop unit. The TLNM modulators employed in the EOCV series use smaller and shorter waveguides compared to conventional LiNbO₃ modulators, offering greater efficiency in converting RF signals into optical signals. Their low RF driving voltage eliminates the need for an external RF amplifier, making the system compatible with standard function generators for laboratory applications.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect 20/40/50 GHz LN Fiber Optical Transmitter/Converter – Turnkey to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Fiber Connector: FC/APC, FC/UPC, Special
- 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
- Laser Wavelength: C-Band, L-Band, 1550 nm, 1551.11 nm, 1562.22 nm, Tunable ITU Laser
- Check the Optical Modulators 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.
