Peleton Adds Tunable Multi-Wavelength Laser to Product Portfolio

Posted on: Wednesday, 21 September 2005, 06:00 CDT

OTTAWA, Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Peleton, a privately held developer and manufacturer of multi-wavelength lasers for applications in optical test and measurement, networking and photonic sensing, today announced the availability of the TM3100C-T tunable multi-wavelength laser source. The TM3100C-T provides the added flexibility offered by a tunable source, combined with the key features of Peleton's unique multi-wavelength laser technology.

Like previous models released by Peleton, the new product is a multi- channel laser, providing 40 wavelengths locked to the ITU-T grid from a single optical fiber. With the TM3100C-T, the ability to tune the entire grid by +/-20 GHz has been added, making it possible to precisely set the laser to frequencies on either side of the ITU-T central frequencies. This flexibility is added without compromising the compactness, flat-spectrum and high output power of the equipment.

The TM3100C-T is useful in passive component testing since it allows components and modules to be scanned across their passbands, providing more information than can be obtained from a single point measurement.

"By adding tunability, the TM3100C-T has the additional flexibility and ease of use that many of our customers desire," said Velko Tzolov, vice- president, marketing and sales, Peleton. "We are seeing a growing demand for flexible multi-wavelength solutions driven by equipment and module vendors that are looking for scalable, easier to manage multi-wavelength test solutions for the design and manufacturing of their products."

In addition to its new tunable offering, Peleton also offers the TM3050C, a 96-channel multi-wavelength source at 50 GHz channel spacing, and the TM3100C, a 40-channel, 100GHz version. Peleton also produces a series of optical channel controllers, which provide accurate attenuation and blocking of individual DWDM channels.

Peleton's multi-wavelength laser equipment is designed for use in research and on the manufacturing line. A variety of remote interfaces are available for Peleton's products, including serial, GPIB and Ethernet control.

Peleton will be exhibiting its full complement of multi-wavelength laser solutions at the 31st European Conference on Optical Communication in Glasgow, September 25 - 29, 2005. Interested parties can visit the company at booth No. 458.
