The results of testing near-infrared photodetectors, that is, a HAMAMATSU H10330B-25 photomultiplier tube (PMT) and a receiving module that was created by the authors on the basis of an SPAD PGA-284 avalanche photodiode, are presented. The results show that when weak optical signals are registered with an avalanche-photodiode-based detector, its sensitivity is higher than that of the PMT by one order of magnitude, while its maximum counting frequency is 10 times lower.
