High-performance electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) for a 2.5Gb/s optical transceiver module is first demonstrated by polymer-based multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). The EMS performance is experimental evaluated by the eye diagram and bit-error-rate test for a 2.5Gb/s lightwave transmission system. The plastic transceiver modules with the more weight percentage of the MWCNT exhibit a higher shielding effectiveness (SE), and hence show effective EMS performance, a better mask margin, and a lower power penalty. The MWCNT composites with SE are suitable for packaging low-cost and high-performance EMS optical transceiver modules used in fiber to the home (FTTH) lightwave transmission systems.
