Note: This series offers both narrow (15°) and wide (50°) viewing angles. The 850 nm models provide the highest radiant intensity for long-range illumination (with slight red glow), while 940 nm models enable completely covert operation. Standard silicon photodiodes are recommended for signal reception.
Key Features
