SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Bookham, Inc. (NASDAQ: BKHM), a leading provider of optical components, modules and subsystems, is to unveil an expanded product portfolio at this month’s European Conference and Exhibition on Optical Communications (ECOC) at the Scottish Exhibition Conference Centre in Glasgow (26th-28th September).

Visitors to the Bookham stand (number 438) will be able to see a wide range of products, several of which will be on display for the first time in Europe.

“Bookham has consistently grown its revenue in recent times, especially in the DWDM Metro and Long Haul sector, where cost-effective upgrading of existing fiber-optic infrastructure is essential for network providers. Bookham is providing solutions at both 2.5G and 10G, which allow these upgrades to happen,” said Paul Morris, Director of European Sales at Bookham. “The combination of our R&D expertise, in-house development capability and low-cost manufacturing facility in China is enabling Bookham to continue to be a leading supplier.”

Product highlights include:

  • A family of new indium phosphide (InP) transmitters offering long-reach capabilities from a small form factor (SFF) module.

  • A range of 2.5Gb/s directly modulated tunable lasers.

  • A coplanar Avalanche Photodiode (APD) receiver with integrated Variable Optical Attenuator (VOA), which dynamically adjusts receiver power in DWDM systems.

  • A wideband tunable transponder – a vertically integrated transponder using the Bookham full band DS-DBR tunable laser.

  • A suite of XFP transceivers offering low-cost form factor for the metro core.

  • Thin film filter chips, modules and components, giving high performance to FTTx applications.

Bookham is also highlighting the capability of its tunable technology with the presentation of three technical papers at the conference. The papers illustrate how far tunable technology has developed and the likely extent of its future application.
