Features & Benefits

The LightVISION® 10G VM series is a  screw-on, robust industrial and RoHS optical module with MPO interface.This combination allows a standard MPO cable to be plugged into the optical module and also mounted on the face-plate of a box or line-card. This approach offers a standard MPO cable connection with a robust, board mounted optical engine providing small size (footprint) and convenient optical cabling at the same time. In addition, the MPO connector is covered with an outside cover boot addressing the issue of water and dust contamination.

  • Flexible: height adjustable with LGA interposer
  • Rugged: RoHS electrical interface
  • Performance: up to 10.3125 Gbps/channel
  • Standards: MPO/MTP® cable connection
  • Robust: Screw-in board-mounted optical module with reduced footprint
  • Low power consumption: 100 mW per channel
  • 4TRX (20G or 40G, full duplex)
  • 12TX or 12RX (120G, half duplex)
  • 12TRX (120G, full duplex), in development

Applications

  • In-flight entertainment systems and connectivity (IFEC)
  • Advanced manufacturing, industrial automation and machine vision
  • High performance computer interconnects
  • Defense and commercial aerospace
