ColorChip, a leading developer and provider of fiber optics components based on PLC technology, announced today the release of a GEPON (EPON) PX10 Triplexer transceivers for the FTTH market.
"ColorChip has found a market need for GEPON transceivers with a 1550nm video overlay requirement, the application for Triplexers in the GEPON market is emerging and ColorChip is in an excellent position to provide Triplexer solutions based on our Meteor III Triplexer platform." said Moshe Price, CEO of ColorChip, "and since ColorChip has developed a high performance video overlay solution for the BPON and GPON, it is only natural for us to provide a product for the GEPON market".
The ColorChip GEPON Triplexer comes with a high performance digital receiver sensitivity at a minimum -26.5 dBm and a Video PIN based receiver optimized for reception of up to 870 MHz analog video signals with minimal CNR of 46 dB.
ColorChip's transceivers are based on the SystemOnGlass(TM) (SOG(TM)) concept, developed with ColorChip's proprietary technology. This concept simplifies the design and manufacturing process compared with the traditional bulk optic solutions. The additional video overlay channel is integrated into the PLC chip creating a performance and cost advantage, compared to conventional bulk optics solutions.
