The optical transmitters are high performance 1310nm FP Lasers, LEDs or 850nm VCSEL's. The optical receivers consist of GaAs or InGaAs PIN and preamplifier assemblies and limiting post-amplifiers.   The optical interface to the Saturn series optical media converters is an Amphenol LC Field®* connector enabling interconnection to preterminated LC based optical fiber cable assemblies.  The electrical interface to the Saturn series optical media converters is an Amphenol RJ-Field®* connector enabling interconnection to preterminated RJ-45 Cat-5 patch cable assemblies.
