O/E Converter (30 KHz to 10 GHz) with FC/UPC Connection
The TIA-3000 Optical to Electrical Converter is a convenient high bandwidth detection system for fiber optic applications. With a typical bandwidth of 30 KHz to 10 GHz, it accurately provides an electrical replica of the optical signal presented to it. It is intended to drive a 50 ohm cable terminated in its characteristic impedance.
The unit is equipped with an InGaAs/InP detector that is responsive in the wavelength range of 900 - 1700 nm. The TIA-3000 is provided with an FC fiber optic receptacle. Other fiber optic connectors can be provided on request. The output signal is presented to a type K SMA female connector.
Each unit is powered by an external 9 V wall-mount power supply.
Calibration - This is a qualitative measurement device. No calibration is required or necessary.
