QUEBEC CITY –- TeraXion (www.teraxion.com), a technology leader in grating-based components, announces delivery of its first tunable chromatic dispersion compensators to three major system manufacturers. The TH-TDC tunable dispersion compensators will be evaluated for integration in 40 Gb/s systems. TH-TDC tunable dispersion compensators offer accurate dispersion levels, very low group delay ripples, and low power consumption."Our customers are actively involved in developing next-generation 40 Gb/s systems and it is very important for us to be a partner in their design phase," says Étienne Gagnon, Vice-President, Sales and Marketing.TeraXion developed the TH-TDC by combining its value-added grating-based components with its patent pending, proprietary tunable technology platform. "At TeraXion, we’ve pioneered high-performance fiber Bragg grating technology by combining our unique writing technique expertise with an in-depth understanding of phase masks. In fact, our phase-mask expertise is a key factor in enabling us to produce value-added components in volume at a lower cost for our customers," says Alain Chandonnet, President and Chief Executive Officer of TeraXion.TeraXion
