Scottish based company Optoscribe is pleased announce the launch of its new FCX Fiber Coupled InterconneX product.

The FCX is a unique glass interface designed for simple coupling to arrays of emitter or receivers including VCSELs, PDs and PICs.

The FCX revolutionises the footprint and form factor of assemblies, whilst supporting high data rates across datacoms and telecoms. This is ideal for applications where space is at a premium and high bandwidth connectivity is essential.

Easy to integrate into system-in-a-package (SIP) solutions, the FCX can be mounted on PCBs for optical boards or directly bonded as part of hybrid assemblies. The reduced package size simplifies fiber interconnection and liberates design constraints associated with optical I/O. FCX is compatible with a wide variety of standard fiber architectures including SMF and MMF, and also supports advanced space division multiplexed transmission using Multicore Fiber (MCF) or Few Mode Fiber (FMF).

The ideal solution for fiber coupling.

The FCX joins Optoscribe’s 3D Optofan and 3D MMux Photonic Lantern range of waveguide solutions.
