The TWL-C-M is a wavelength tunable laser module in C-band. The TWL-C-M alleviates inventory and costs in high-channel-count DWDM systems by allowing a single device to replace each of the single-channel devices. Full-band tunable assemblies also enable system functionality such as hot back-up and dynamic provisioning in addition to applications of optical regeneration and wavelength conversion. The TWL-C-M has a low Relative Intensity Noise (RIN), a high Side-Mode Suppression Ratio (SMSR), an ultra narrow linewidth, and excellent wavelength accuracy. This module comes with an intuitive GUI software for control of the wavelength and optical power. The TWL-C-M can be used for Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) optical Transceivers and DWDM discrete line card design. The TWL-C-M requires a single +12 Volt DC power supply for operation. Contact Optilab for more information.
