Overcome Challenges in Embedded Optical Interconnects Design

The above article has outlined the advantages and challenges of using fiber optical interconnects. To use fiber optic cables, the electrical signals need to be converted to light signals using fiber optic transceivers. While there are many challenges to embedded fiber optics design, the benefits are substantial. The guidelines and design check list provided will help developers select the best solutions for their needs.

KaStream receives Inmarsat Global Xpress approval

Tail-mount antenna system delivers commercial and military Ka-band worldwide coverage for Airborne Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR)

One-stop-shop laboratory replicates deep space environment

Space flight hardware is exposed to severe shock, vibration, thermal variations and electromagnetic environments that start with launch and continue throughout its operational lifetime. Environmental tests expose the hardware to these environments in a simulation laboratory to validate the design, screen for manufacturing defects and ensure the reliability and survivability of flight hardware.
