0.5 Gbps

laser source

A 0.5 Gbps laser diode at 1550 nm is designed for high-speed optical communication, including Free Space Optical Communication (FSOC) and fiber systems. It efficiently transmits data at 0.5 Gbps, ideal for telecommunications. Its high output power ensures strong signal transmission over short to medium distances, utilizing the low attenuation of the 1550 nm wavelength. These diodes are vital in FSOC setups, allowing data transmission through open space and in fiber configurations, providing reliable high-speed links in various settings.

How it works

The 0.5 Gbps laser diode emits a coherent optical signal at 1550 nm, modulating it with high-speed data. This signal is transmitted through optical fibers or free space, enabling reliable, high-bandwidth communication with minimal signal loss.
