Product Description
LR-45-M is a general purpose 45 GHz bandwidth Lightwave Receiver
module designed for optical communication, instrumentation, laboratory
testing, ultra-broadband RF over fiber. Each unit of LR-45-M will be delivered
with a complete calibration report, which is measured by a calibrated Agilent
(NIST traceable) lightwave component analyzer.2
LR-45-M utilizes a high sensitivity, wide bandwidth PIN photodiode and
linear pre-amplifier that provides optical to electrical (O/E) conversion to
frequency range up to 50 GHz. This compact module can be used in
conjunction with the LT-40 to make an ultra-wideband RFoF link.
