The PT-12A is a -18 dBm sensitivity, single-output receiver module for OC-192/ STM-64 with FEC transmission system receive applications including NRZ with Super FEC up to 12.5 Gb/s. It couples a high responsivity (1.0 A/W), backilluminated PIN photodiode, usable from 1200 nm to 1650 nm, with an internal transimpedance gain stage of 475 V/A. This combination produces a receiver with a 10 GHz band-width and a conversion gain of 475 V/W.
The single-coaxial output module is available with either an SMA or GPO output connector in a compact, 8-pin butterfly package with single-mode fiber input. The receiver meets Telcordia GR-468 qualification standards.
