Fiber Coupled Amplified Photodetectors Module Plug-Play
40 GHz Balance Photodetector / Photoreceiver Module
The BPRM is a turnkey High Speed Balanced Photoreceiver is designed for high-speed analog and digital light detection, offering exceptional performance with a differential gain of approximately 2800 V/W and a bandwidth of up to 40 GHz. It features two waveguide-integrated PIN photodiodes and a limiting delivers a differential output voltage swing of approximately 600 mV. The BPRM achieves excellent electrical and optical phase propagation with a total skew of less than 5 ps between balanced signal paths and 10 ps total skew for all fiber pairs. Each amplifier path includes a threshold control at the linear amplification stage to optimize the differential output signal. The BPRM includes a low-noise power supply for simple, plug-and-play operation. This photoreceiver is ideal for applications requiring high sensitivity and high-speed balanced detection.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect 40 GHz Balance Photodetector / Photoreceiver Module to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Connector: FC/APC, Special · RF Connector: GPPO, K
- 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 Range: 1200-1600nm
- Check the Fiber Coupled Amplified Photodetectors Module Plug-Play 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.
