Abstract :
The authors present a 16-channel 2D VCSEL-array module. The module uses a plastic-based receptacle package, directly joined to a push/pull fibre connector. The VCSEL-array was passively self-aligned to the package. This module exhibits floorless BER performance at 1 Gbit/s without an isolator, a sensitivity of 26.0 dBm±0.9 dB, and a coupling loss of 2.1 dB±0.8 dB
