Buying Fiber-optic Links

Fiber-optic links can transmit data at high rates (many Gbit/s) between two points. Single-mode links can bridge distances of many kilometers, while multimode links are typically used for shorter distances. These links are vital for establishing high-speed, reliable communication networks.
Making Good Purchase Decisions
RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers, but also to make good purchasing decisions.
NEW: Structured Decision Process
We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.
(Various further improvements of this feature will come soon.)

![]() OEM Electronics for the Generation and Detection of Laser Light Analog Modules, Inc.126 Baywood Avenue Longwood, FL 32750 United States | ![]() The Model 732T/R is purely an analog device. The input signal is converted to a current and used to drive a LED. The output of the LED is detected by a photodetector in the receiver, converted to a voltage then amplified. The gain of the receiver amplifier is tuned to provide transparent transmission. |
![]() Lasers for the Molecular Age Cycle GmbHLuruper Hauptstr. 1 22547 Hamburg Germany |
The PULSE Timing Distribution System (TDS) enables sub-femtosecond distribution of timing signals to remote locations. PULSE takes advantage of inherently low noise optical pulse train generated by a mode-locked laser (i.e., optical master oscillator (OMO)) and uses it as its timing signal. The pristine OMO timing signal is transferred through fiber-optic links to multiple end stations where transmission delays are detected with attosecond resolution using Cycle’s patented balanced optical cross-correlators (BOC) and actively compensated. If desired, the OMO can be referenced to an optical clock or a microwave standard. Cycle’s fully automated WAVE Timing Link precisely distributes and transfers high-quality RF clock signals to remote locations, which can be even tens of kilometers away. The WAVE Timing Link is actively stabilized and compensates any changes of optical path length caused by environmental fluctuations. |
