Tunable Cateye SAF Laser (CES)

The Cateye Laser CES from MOGLabs combines the advantages of Cateye filter technology with unique laser diodes in butterfly design with single-angle facets. The CES is characterized by an extremely low linewidth (5 kHz) and a very large tuning range and has an integrated Faraday isolator and direct fiber coupling.

Currently available wavelengths and maximum power:

  • 960 – 1080 nm, 200 mW*
  • 1080 – 1200 nm, 100 mW*
  • 1170 – 1270 nm, 70 mW
  • 1250 – 1390 nm, 70 mW
  • 1420 – 1520 nm, 40 mW
  • 1510 – 1610 nm, 40 mW
  • 1860 – 1970 nm, 7 mW*

*Notes:
The full wavelength range requires the replacement of filters.
The devices marked with * do not contain an internal Faraday isolator
