ThermalAir TA-Series of Temperature Forcing Systems
ThermalAir Temperature Test Systems are used for fiber optic manufacturing final test applications in engineering development and production at temperature ranges from -40°C to +90°C to thermal test and temperature calibrate these devices at precise temperatures.
ThermalAir TA-5000 -80°C to +225°C, TA-3000 -65C° to +225°C and TA-1000 -25°C to +200°C temperature inducing equipment provides a controlled temperature of hot and cold air directly on the fiber optic component under test with temperatures ranging from -80°C to +225°C with an accuracy of +/- 1.0°C for fiber optic components.
Fiber Optic Components
Commercial SFPs and other Fiber Optic components are designed to withstand temperatures between 0°C and 70°C. Some of RAD’s SFPs are industry hardened versions, designed and tested to operate from -40°C to +90°C at a temperature margin within the set point better than +/- 1.0°C. These and other families of Fiber Optic Transceivers specified temperature ranges may vary according to where the product in which the Fiber Optic Component SFP and others are used.
With the continuous expansion of Data Center scale and the rapid growth of network bandwidth demand, 400G and 800G Optical Transceivers have become key devices for ultra-high-speed data transmission. MPI ThermalAir localized temperature forcing systems are  used for temperature characterize and thermal condition small form-factor pluggable (SFP) compact, hot-pluggable network interface modules SFP to OSFP 400G / 800G / 1.6T Pluggable Optical Transceivers. This localized thermal inducing systems for telecommunication, data communications, AI and other Data Center applications. … SFP to OSFP 400G, 800G optical transceivers support SONET, Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, PON, and other communications standards.

ThermalAir Systems for SFP Fiber Optic Transceiver
Thermal Test Applications
ThermalAir TA-5000 system controls temperature for testing microelectronic and other electronic and non-electronic materials. This assures your parts are suitable for use within industrial, commercial and consumer electronic systems. These include basic temperature tests to determine characteristics of these fiber optic transceivers / laser devices over temperature.

Thermal Cycling Fiber Optic Components
Standard environmental test chambers cannot meet the narrow temperature accuracy margins for 25G, 40G, 100G and 400G fiber optic transceiver.
ThermalAir systems produce a hot and cold stream of air at very fast ramp rates directed on the device under test with very precise thermal control, providing a temperature range from -80°C to +225°C with an accuracy of +/- 1.0°C for fiber optic transceivers and other high speed electronic components.
MPI Thermal temperature inducing equipment is portable and can easily be moved from one test station to another. Fiber Optic Component manufacturers can use our ThermalAir TA-5000 system to quickly bring their parts to temperature right at the test location.Â
Temperature cycling, thermal profiling and other environmental temperature conditioning is why MPI Thermal systems are part of the manufacturing temperature test process.
This is why the MPI Thermal TA-5000 Series of ThermalAir temperature products are part of the test.
Thermal Management
OSFP modules have an integrated heat sink for optimal thermal performance, allowing them to handle higher power consumption and data rates. These optical transceiver components need to temperature testing to assure functionality when matched up in data centers, AI data centers and almost every other application these optical components are used
As data centers scale and bandwidth demands rise, 400G and 800G optical transceivers have become essential for high-speed data transmission. MPI ThermalAir systems have long supported the thermal testing and conditioning of optical modules—from early SFPs to modern OSFP 400G/800G/1.6T transceivers—used in telecom, AI, and data center applications. These transceivers support a range of standards, including SONET, Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and PON.
MPI Thermal air stream systems meet the temperature test standards for pluggable transceivers fiber optic components 25G, 40G, 100G, 400G, 800G & 1.6T optical transceivers. Our ThermalAir products provide uniform temperature methods to generate hot and cold temperature for fiber optic transceivers for Aerospace / Defense & Commercial / Industrial with temperature test range of -60°C to +125°C.
