The 2.5 Gb/s bias-ready modulator is a digital device in which the bias point of
the interferometer is set using an applied voltage, typically with a control loop, to
operate at the half-intensity point (quadrature). This design uses our x-cut
technology, which has been field-proven and provides the best stability in the bias
point over life. The device provides superior signal quality across a wide range of
wavelengths in the C and L bands and can be used to modulate tunable lasers. The
modulator is designed for medium- and long-haul transmission in dense
wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) and time division multiplexing
(TDM) systems.
