Features
Ultra High-Speed Photodetection
This high-speed fiber optic photodetector shows flat response up to 45 GHz and is optimized for frequency-domain applications. For time-domain applications, please see our Time Domain Fiber-Optic Detectors.
High Sensitivity Throughout Spectrum
Model 1014 utilizes InGaAs providing coverage from 500 to 1630 nm.
Easy-to-use, Self-contained Module
These self-contained modules connect directly to test instruments like digital oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and network analyzers for lightwave time and frequency-domain measurements. The internal housing of the high-speed models is specially designed to preserve the frequency response and phase to give true fidelity in your measurements. Also, the photodetector comes equipped with a DC-bias monitor that has a transimpedance gain of 1 mV/µA and a 50-kHz bandwidth.
Singlemode FC Fiber-optic Connector Input
These modules accept single-mode FC-fiber-optic inputs from your optical apparatus, eliminating the need for lossy and dispersive high-frequency coaxial cables. The fiber-coupled input also prevents signal distortion.
