Avago Technologies has completed full Telcordia GR-468-CORE qualification of its next-generation 850nm vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL). These VCSELs are currently in volume production for use in its higher speed fiber optic products.
III-V technologies such as VCSELs play a key role in assuring supply, reliability and high quality in fiber optic product manufacturing. Products including 10Gb/s Ethernet and 8Gb/s Fibre Channel transceivers and 6.25Gb/s Parallel Optics transmitters based on Avago’s next-generation VCSELs are sampling now with commercial release scheduled for later this year.
