SOMERSET, N.J. -- Multilink Technology Corporation (Nasdaq: MLTC), a leading provider of advanced semiconductor-based solutions that accelerate the deployment of high-speed optical networks, today introduced the MTC5526, Multilink's form-factor compatible Modulator Driver (MDR) for metro LiNbO3 Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) applications. Multilink is providing the advantage of long-haul performance to the metro market by utilizing the high performing MTC5529 Micro-Module(TM) MDR, integrated onto a board assembly with configuration circuitry. The module's configuration, along with its package dimensions, allow metro designers to simply replace commonly used modulator drivers with the higher-performing, more cost- effective Multilink device without having to redesign or reconfigure their system board. The MTC5526 is suitable for customers with multi-source MDR requirements and provides a low cost alternative to competitive brands while allowing customers to transmit data over longer distances using legacy fiber. The MTC5526 thereby allows customers to extend the reach, performance and reliability of their metro systems without redesign - all at a lower cost. Multilink Technology Corp.
