AGILE OPTICAL COMPONENTS 10 Gb/s Dual Drive Mach-Zehnder (DDMZ) Modulator Key Features • Low differential drive voltage, typically 2 V • Matching electro-optic amplitude and phase responses • Wide optical bandwidth, compatible with full band tunable lasers • 12 GHz electro-optic (E/O) bandwidth • Single-sided electrical I/O Applications • Long reach (LR) and very long reach (VR) metro networks • Long haul (LH), ultra long haul (ULH), and submarine optical transport networks • Optical field processing for active dispersion compensation at the transceiver • Duo-binary transmission at 40 Gb/s • Bandwidth grooming Compliance • Telcordia GR-468 The JDSU Agile Optical Components family includes modulators, switches, attenuators and tunable filters. These products provide the basis for spectrally efficient DWDM transmission utilizing dispersion tolerant modulation, channel monitoring, wavelength switching, remote power control and dynamic channel selection. They support a wide range of flexible functionalities at lower operational expenses for the Agile Optical Network. In addition, we have a complete line of tunable lasers assemblies and sub-assemblies in our Agile Transmission Module family. The 10 Gb/s Dual Drive Mach-Zehnder (DDMZ) modulator is ideally suited for use in long reach (LR) and very long reach (VR) metro network applications as well as in long haul (LH) transmission systems. DDMZ modulators have been specifically designed to yield well-behaved and matching electro-optic amplitude and phase responses over a broad RF frequency range. They are ideally suited for the processing of the optical field of a transceiver’s laser. This application can be useful for active dispersion compensation. In addition, DDMZ modulators have a wide optical bandwidth. They are compatible with full band tunable lasers in either C or L band. Their low drive voltages make them compatible with low power dissipating differential modulator drivers. For mounting convenience and space efficiency, the DDMZ modulator is packaged using JDSU’s compact (6-mm high) hermetic packaging technology. For transceiver integration and mounting efficiency, the entire electrical I/O is located on one side of the modulator. The RF inputs use GPO-style RF input connectors.
