Fujitsu's line of cutting-edge, high-performance optical components, which includes 300pin Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) transponders, 10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable (XFP) and Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) MSA transceivers, optical transceivers for PON, Lithium Niobate (LN) external modulators, and a variable chromatic dispersion compensator using Virtually Imaged Phased Array (VIPA) technology, have already been available to customers in global markets. They are very useful as wavelength filters and dispersion compensators in the new wavelength division multiplexed optical fiber communication systems and also make excellent strain sensors that can be networked to obtain distributed strain measurements of large structures, such as bridges and ships.
