Overview
Endurance® is a family of compact transceiver modules designed to be rugged and
robust so they are optimal for industrial and military applications. They have a wide
operating temperature range, a metal housing to minimize effects of Electro-Magnetic
Interference, two through-hole mounting posts to stabilize under shock and vibration
conditions, and the pins are soldered directly to the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) to ensure
constant connectivity. Endurance modules are available with conformal coating for
additional reliability in harsh environments. They have been qualified to Telcordia and
Military standards.
The simple serial interface is independent of protocol and can thus be used in a wide
range of applications. Digital diagnostic functions for monitoring and control of the
module are provided via a 2-wire serial interface.
Key Advantages
Robust for environments with extreme temperatures, shock and vibration,
electromagnetic interference, and corrosion
Saves valuable board space with its compact size
Light weight fiber optic solution for data links compared to coaxial cable
Low power consumption
Utilizes Finisar’s vertically integrated and highly reliable laser technology
and integrated circuit capabilities
