Description
The 2606B CATV return-path photodiode module is a critical component for the delivery of high-performance interactive services for todays two-way fiberoptic networks. These modules utilize PIN InGaAs photodiodes in robust 14-pin DIL packages that exhibit excellent sensitivity, low noise, and exceptional linearity in return-path optical links. The module incorporates a patented impedance-matching circuit, which optimizes very low noise gain in optical broadband receivers.

Features
■ 5 MHz—200 MHz frequency range
■ Flat response to ± 0.5 dB
■ High optical responsivity
■ Ultra low optical return loss
■ 75 Ω impedance-matched

Applications
■ Return-path CATV receivers
