Ten vibration insensitive (!) lasers per card are spectrally multiplexed into one polarized fiber output and can be frequency modulated independently through a simple computer interface.

The basic FLS10 Multi-laser system consists of a 10 laser line card, a communication card, power supply and software. The system is available either air- or water-cooled.
