In 2009 Ignis acquired the Swedish optical component company Syntune AB and added active optical components to its product portfolio.

Ignis Syntune’s mission is to innovate and develop market leading products based on an Indium Phosphide technology platform. At the forefront are the company’s integrated tunable laser solutions – in volume production since 2008 – featuring lightning fast tuning and low power dissipation in a highly compact form factor.

 

The latest products – launched during OFC 2010 – are InGaAs Avalanche Photo Diode Chips for data rates from 1 Gb/s to 10 Gb/s and applications ranging from fiber to the home (xPON) to longer reach metro and long haul transmission (SONET/SDH and DWDM).
