Description
Corning Lasertron QLM716 DFB modules are designed for use in dense wavelength
division multiplexing (DWDM) systems with transmission rates up to 2.5 Gb/s and fiber
span lengths of 100 km. Standard products are defined at the ITU 100 GHz channel
spacings. Modules are also available with any wavelength from 1526 to 1602 nm. These
modules feature the same miniature optical bench construction as Corning Lasertron
single-channel QLM3S700, QLM5S710 and WDM QLM715 DFB laser modules for
extremely stable performance over temperature and module lifetime.
