Lumentum Achieves Industry Milestone: Ships One Millionth Telecom Pump Laser
09 Décembre 2015 - 10:05PM
Lumentum Holdings Inc. (“Lumentum”) announced today that it reached
an industry milestone by shipping its one millionth, latest
generation, 980-nanometer pump laser. The advanced pump laser
platform is being deployed in optical networks worldwide.
“This milestone was accomplished twice as fast as
the previous generation, and is a great accomplishment for Lumentum
and the Optical Communications team,” said Doug Alteen, vice
president, product line management, Telecom. “Pump lasers, which
power optical amplifiers, are an integral part of next generation
optical networks. Lumentum 980-nanometer pump lasers have already
accumulated over 12 billion device field hours, demonstrating
exceptional performance, and reliability.”
About Pump Lasers
Derived from a revolutionary semi-cooled (45ºC)
platform, the 980-nanometer pump laser significantly reduces power
consumption and enables operation in extreme physical environments.
Lumentum offers a full portfolio of pump lasers for optical
amplification. The 980-nanometer series products support
erbium-doped fiber amplifiers operating from 100 milliwatts to 900
milliwatts power levels. The 14xx nanometer and 15xx nanometer
series products, deployed in Raman amplification, offer operating
powers up to 600 milliwatts in wavelengths covering the C band and
L band.
“The 980-nanometer laser platform is ideal for the
growing markets that require the highest performance and
reliability at lowest cost per milliwatts,” said Jay Skidmore,
senior director, R&D, High Power Lasers. “Its progressive
optical design, hermetic packaging, power scalability, and lean
manufacturing are all easily extended to smaller form factors
demanded by our end-user customers.”
