This Vertical Cavity SurfaceEmitting Laser is designed for Fibre
Channel, Gigabit Ethernet, ATM and
general applications. It operates in
multiple transverse and single longitudinal mode, ensuring stable coupling of power and low noise.
Note 1: Fiber: 50/125 Graded Index, NA=0.2 or 62.5/125 Graded Index, NA=0.275.
W ARNING: Laser Radiation, a void exposure
to beam. Class 3B laser product, potential
eye hazard. Warning labels in each box.
The chip is isolated from the case.
