Ultra-thin Active Optical Module LIGHTPASS^®-EOB 100G 

---

I-PEX will start providing samples of the LIGHTPASS^®-EOB 100G with built-in microprocessor using I-O Core's silicon photonics IC "Optical I/O Core".

The LIGHTPASS^®-EOB 100G is an ultra-thin active optical module with a height of 2.3 mm, integrated with silicon photonics IC for the electrical-optical conversion of internal high-speed signals in data center equipment. The LIGHTPASS^®-EOB 100G achieves high-speed transmission of 100 Gbps (25 Gbps x 4 ch) up to 300 meters over multimode fiber cable.

For sample supply, an evaluation board is also available along with the active optical module.

I-PEX has added the LIGHTPASS^®-EOB 100G to its product lineup, along with the LIGHTPASS^®-EOM 100G, which is currently supplying samples to the optical interconnection market to meet the increasing data traffic. ( LIGHTPASS^® SERIES article  )
