Analog Optical Transmitter

Overview

Exail Analog Optical Transmitters pair a wide-bandwidth linear LiNbO3 modulator with a low-RIN laser. The RF amplifier is optional when the unit is combined with an electrical VNA for fully calibrated 2-port S-parameter measurements. Standard units cover telecom C and O bands up to 65 GHz, with custom near-infrared versions available.
