Duplex CWDM MUX & DEMUX

Multiplexer (MUX) and demultiplexer (DEMUX) are combined together into a single piece of equipment for bi-directional data transmission over two fibers.

Fiber-Mart CWDM Mux/Demux is a passive technology, it allows for any protocol to be transported over the link, as long as it is at a specific wavelength (i.e. T1 over fiber at 1570nm transported alongside 10Gbps Ethernet at 1590nm). This allows for long-term future proofing of the networking infrastructure because the multiplexers simply refract light at any network speed, regardless of the protocol being deployed.
Fiber-Mart provides a complete portfolio of CWDM Mux Demux and Optical Add Drop Multiplexer (OADM) units to suit all applications such as: Gigabit & 10G Ethernet, SDH/SONET, ATM, ESCON, Fibre Channel, FTTx and CATV. And we provide optional port configurations such as: Express Port, Monitor Port, 1310nm passband port and 1550nm port for these multiplexers according to customer choice.

Front Panel Details

a

Common port:

• LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.

b

Standard port 1310nm:

• Allows a legacy 1310nm signal to pass. That is to say, it can carry LR optics, LX optics etc.
• LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.

c

Standard port 1550nm:

• Allows a legacy 1550nm signal to pass. That is to say, it can carry ER optics, ZR optics, LX optics, ZX optics etc.
• LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.

d

Mux/Demux port for specific wavelengths:

• LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
• Compliant with the ITU G.657A1 standard as default.These are available in ITU G.652, ITU G.652C and ITU G.652D on request. The 1390 and 1410 wavelengths are not recommend at ITU G.652 because of the higher attenuation.

e

Express port:

• Enables the cascading of two CWDM mux/demux modules, doubling the channel capacity on the common fiber link.
• Channel Isolation is 15dB as default, 16dB ~40dB available on request.
• LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.

f

Monitor port:

• Connects measurement/monitoring equipment, such as power meters or network analyzers, to the module outputs.
• When finished monitoring, disconnect the instruments and the network is left undisturbed.
• LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
• Tap percentage is 5% as default, 1%, 2%, 3%, or 10% available on request.

NOTE:

• Actual layout depends on the chosen connector type as well as other factors. However, the principal scheme stays the same
• We provide optional port configurations such as: Express Port, Monitor Port, 1310nm passband port and 1550nm port for these multiplexers according to customer choice, need more details, please contact at [email protected]
• When using with 1310nm legacy SDH/SONET, CWDM wavelengths 1270, 1290, 1310, 1330 and 1350nm should not be used.
• When using with 1550nm legacy SDN/SONET, CWDM wavelengths 1510, 1530, 1550, 1570 and 1590nm should not be used.
