The 1622 ITU G.695 compliant CWDM forward path DFB laser components are
designed for both broadcast and narrowcast analog applications. The highly
linear, OC-48 pinout compatible components feature options for up to 20 mW of
minimum optical output power with superior distortion performance over an
enhanced temperature range of -40C to +85C.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are absolute stress
ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the
operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect
device reliability.
