2651A/2651E Broadband Photodiode
DATASHEET | FEBRUARY 2012
FIBER OPTICS
The 2651 provides the proven high performance of EMCORE’s photodiode
technology in a very practical, cost-effective package. The 2651A features high
linearity and low capacitance over a 1 GHz bandwidth. The extended bandwidth
2651E offers high linearity and low capacitance up to 3 GHz. These broadband
photodiodes are housed in a small, environmentally rugged coaxial package.
The 2651 broadband photodetector is designed to provide the performance and
flexibility needed to meet the expanding applications of two-way communications
networks. This photodiode is used today in forward-and return-path applications,
including AM-VSB CATV, QAM 64/256, PON, FTTC and FTTH receivers.
