Description
The R2860G receiver module incorporates a high-speed planar PIN diode and an HBT preamplifier to provide exceptionally high linearity. The receiver is designed to provide very clean pulse response at
12.5 Gbits/s that results in high-quality eye patterns
(see Figure 1).

Features
■ Linear output up to 0 dBm optical input power
■ High sensitivity, –18 dBm typical
■ High overload, > 2 dBm typical
■ Transimpedance, 500 Ω typical
■ dc-coupled output
■ Hermetically sealed

Applications
■ 12.5 Gbits/s short, intermediate, and long-haul systems
■ DWDM equipment
■ SONET/SDH equipment
■ Return to zero (RZ) and strong forward-error correction (FEC) applications
