Specifically designed for use as a low speed out of band

optical service channel for optical amplifiers. The laser

is available in a low-inductance 14-pin butterfly package

with single-mode connectorized fiber-optic pigtail with a rated

peak output power of 2 mW. At 1510 nm, the LC151B-20

does not interfere with WDM traffic and operates outside

the normal EDFA gain region. The high reliability buried

hetero-structure DFB laser chip ensures the reliability of

the LC151B-20 over the entire range of recommended

operating conditions.

Features:

• Wavelength 1510 nm

• Designed to operate at 4 Mb/s - 155 Mb/s

• Low threshold, high reliability BHet laser chip

• Hermetically sealed 14 pin high speed

butterfly package

• High output power 2 mW minimum CW

• Internal InGaAs monitor photodiode

• Available with several optical connector options

• RoHS compliant

Applications:

• Optical Service Channel (OSC) applications in DWDM

transmission systems using optical amplifiers.
