Medallion 8000 Series 1550 nm Directly-Modulated Transmitter DATASHEET | MAY 2013 FIBER OPTICS Direct-Modulation, DWDM, Low Distortion, Wideband EMCORE’s Medallion 8000 is a directly-modulated DWDM optical transmitter specifically designed for wideband applications that require both CATV and DBS signals to be transmitted over up to a 30 km length of fiber. This facilitates networks designs that use a single transmitter to carry multiple signals. Applications High Power Distribution Networks Redundant Ring Architectures FTTx Networks RFOG Applications SAT-IF Transport Features Dual Redundant Power Supplies SNMP Network Interface Dual RF Inputs for CATV and SAT-IF Available on 100 GHz Spaced ITU DWDM C-band Channels Optimized RF Integration of Predistorter, Amplifiers, and EMCORE Laser Advanced SBS Suppression Technology Fiber Length Selectable Via Front Panel Control RoHS Compliant The Medallion 8000 supports full 79-channel NTSC analog signal and/or a combination of QAM, DBS with reduced channel analog CATV. The Medallion 8000 can be selected as a fixed fiber length option to support a fixed length from 0 – 10 km, 5 – 15 km, 10 – 20 km and 15 – 25 km with 18 dBm SBS suppression maximum, or it can be ordered as a fiber length selectable option. This option allows the user to set the Medallion 8000 for best optimized CSO at any fiber length from 0 – 30 km with 1 km increments. At the selected fiber length, the unit can perform within specification with a fiber length of ± 3 km. The selectable fiber length option has a maximum SBS suppression of 20 dBm. The Medallion 8000 family of transmitter products is designed to support various CATV transmitter applications with a common platform. A 75 CATV RF video input supports frequencies up to 1002 MHz. Integrated within the transmitter design are EMCORE’S low chirp control, noise suppression circuitry, and patented predistortion technology to provide outstanding performance with any of EMCORE’S wide range of cooled broadband lasers. A second 75 RF input supports frequencies up to 2700 MHz for FTTP, SAT-IF, and wireless applications.
