We demonstrate the feasibility of 10.7 Gb/s error-free (BER < 10 -12) optical transmission on distances up to 2 km using a recently developed ultra-low-voltage commercial Electro-Optic Modulator (EOM) that is driven by 0.6 Vpp and with an optical input power of 1 mW. Given this low voltage operation, the modulator could be driven directly from the detectors' board signals without the need of any further amplification reducing significantly the power dissipation and the material budget.

Abstract
We demonstrate the feasibility of 10.7 Gb/s error-free (BER < 10 -12) optical transmission on distances up to 2 km using a recently developed ultra-low-voltage commercial Electro-Optic Modulator (EOM) that is driven by 0.6 Vpp and with an optical input power of 1 mW. Given this low voltage operation, the modulator could be driven directly from the detectors' board signals without the need of any further amplification reducing significantly the power dissipation and the material budget.File in questo prodotto:
