Coherent Announces High-Power Uncooled G10 Pump Laser Modules for Submarine and Terrestrial Applications
March 22 2024 - 6:30AM
Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR), a leading provider of high-performance
optical networking solutions, announced today new high-power,
uncooled pump laser modules built on the latest G10 series laser
diode technology. The new modules are developed for
high-reliability submarine applications and both single- and
dual-chip terrestrial applications.
The new uncooled pump laser modules are designed for high-power,
high-functionality optical amplifiers and amplified ROADM line card
applications. In a compact 10-pin form factor, the uncooled pump
laser modules deliver market firsts:
- Up to 1000 mW of output power for submarine applications.
- Up to 2x700 mW with both symmetrical and asymmetric options on
the dual-chip platform.
These uncooled modules support the growing trend toward
energy-efficient networks to meet sustainability goals. This
results in a lower cost of network ownership by reducing overall
power consumption and eliminating much of the thermal and power
management equipment associated with legacy cooled lasers.
“Coherent released its first uncooled pump laser module in 2004
and its first dual-chip module in 2011 and is the leader in both
uncooled and dual-chip technology,” said Dr. Beck Mason, Executive
Vice President, Telecommunications. “Our newest G10 pump chips
underpin the successful evolution of our high-power uncooled pump
laser modules. Together with a broad portfolio of active and
passive components, Coherent offers a leading portfolio of
solutions for submarine and terrestrial amplifier designers.”
Qualification of the new single- and dual-chip terrestrial
modules will complete in mid-2024. Samples are available now, and
volume production will commence in late 2024.
