RIO ORION 1550 nm Narrow Linewidth Laser Module
A compact and industry-proven OEM narrow linewidth low noise source designed for 24/7 operation in harsh environments.
The ORION’s packaging was designed with the customer’s need in mind: highly integrated, small form factor and self-contained module. This optical solution is positioned for reducing the development cycle time and allow for simple integration into advanced fiber optic sensing systems. External monitoring and control can be achieved via SPI, RS-232 or RS-485 standard interfaces.
The ORION’s higher output power, low noise and ultra narrow linewidth ideally position this semiconductor optical solution for multiple applications where absolute accuracy, lifetime reliability over demanding field conditions, and high resolution are vital, such as remote sensing, distributed temperature, strain, or acoustic fiber optic monitoring, high resolution spectroscopy, LIDAR and other precision metrology applications.
