PD-40-M

The Optilab PD-40-M is a 40 GHz bandwidth PIN receiver module designed for RF over Fiber, antenna remoting, and broadband RF transmission applications using single mode optical fiber. The PD-40-M can accept input power of up to 10 mW, utilizing a high input power, low distortion PIN photodiode that provides optical to RF conversion out to the frequency range beyond 40 GHz. This compact, cost-effective receiver module can provide users with status monitoring through the use of an on-board processor that communicates to a host computer over an RS- 232 I/O interface via a standard USB 2.0 port. When the PD-40-M RF over fiber receiver module is linked with the LT series of RF over fiber transmitter modules, the combination provides an excellent solution for ultra-wideband RF to fiber conversion applications.
