Research abstract
In this Phase I STTR proposal EM4, Inc. of Bedford MA, will develop a novel OSA packaging and OTDR methodology for a ruggedized transceiver with build-in ¡Vtest (BIT) capabilities. The proposed design will operate as a FibreChannel transceiver with enhanced dynamic range and 1-2 Gbt/s data transmission over a multimode fiber. This design would have OTDR capabilities with a fiber fault isolation resolution better than 10 cm and would have zero dead zones. The design approach and manufacturing techniques used in this transceiver would allow maintaining spec compliant performance over extended temperature range -40 to 100,aC. EM4 has outlined a comprehensive plan for developing a truly unique BIT transceiver design.
