1. What wavelengths of light will this device need to work with?

ANSWER: 1300 - 1650 nm.

2. Is there a drawing available that highlights dimensional requirements? Are there any unique design constraints that might affect part design?

ANSWER: There is no drawing highlighting dimensional requirements. A bench mount or rack mount is acceptable.
