Product Overview
1550nm DFB Laser
The LD4B-1550-DFB-2.5G-20 is a wavelength stabilized, multi quantum well distributed feedback grating laser diode (DFB). These laser diodes are offered in a 14-pin butterfly package with internal TEC, 10K thermistor and photodiode. The output is single mode fiber terminated with an FC/APC connector.
Highest Reliability Rating: Designed and Tested to Telcordia GR-468-CORE Compliance Standards
These lasers diodes are designed for compliance with Telcordia GR-468-CORE standards. This standard is a widely recognized standard that outlines the reliability and quality assurance requirements for optoelectronic devices, particularly semiconductor laser diodes and photonic components used in telecommunications. This standard ensures the long-term performance and durability of laser diodes and optoelectronic components.
Proper Handling and Operation
Laser diodes are highly susceptible to damage from ESD and from temperatures exceeding their specified safe operating range. The user is advised to use care and proper ESD safety practices when handling them to avoid damage to the laser. A properly rated low noise current source, a low thermal resistance mount and a temperature controller should be used for optimal device performance and reliability.
