LIGHTech in the News: Press Release Oct. 5, 2001 LIGHTech Fiberoptics, Inc. Unveils the Smart VOA Array
San Leandro,
Calif., October 5, 2001
-- LIGHTech Fiberoptics,
Inc, the premier, quality source for optical switching components, variable
optical attenuators, integrated optical modules and test equipment, unveils the
LT3500 Smart VOA Array product series. The
Smart VOA product series integrates up to 8 VOA’s per module with a built-in
attenuation control circuit and calibration data storage device. A single RS 232 interface allows for
easy integration into complex network systems. The LT3500
eliminates the requirement for the system developer to design and implement
custom VOA calibration, data storage and control circuitry. Systems incorporating LIGHTech’s
newest VOA product will benefit from the improved repeatability and reduced VOA
failure rate offered by the integrated functions of the Smart VOA product
series. LT3500 features insertion
loss of 0.35dB, precise attenuation resolution of <0.1dB and low wavelength
dependent loss of <0.2dB. Wavelength
windows from 1280nm to 1340nm and from 1525nm to 1565nm are available. The
LT3500 family is designed for use in power management applications including
optical Add/Drop Multiplexers, Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFA), and channel
balancing in DWDM systems. “Our Smart
VOA Array series provides our clients an extremely cost-effective and simple
method to incorporate the VOA function,?said Richard Burroughs, LIGHTech’s
Director of Sales. “Our clients
only need to connect a RS232 interface and a 5 volt power supply, and our smart
VOA is ready to go. In today’s
extremely competitive market, system companies want and need to focus the use of
their resources on their competitive value add and prefer to leave the VOA
function to LIGHTech’s engineering team.?lt;/span> LIGHTech supplies fiberoptic switching products to major telecom and datacom systems providers and end-users in the U.S., Europe, and Asia.
