Description
CWDM systems use filters to provide 20nm spacing for up to 16 independent wavelengths to be transmitted over a pair of optical fibers. Arkoptics offers a 16 Channel CWDM Mux Demux passive rackmount solution with an operating range of 1300nm to 1620nm and a center wavelength of 1310nm to 1610nm. This passive rackmount 16CH CWDM is plug-and-play and can be used to organize 16 duplex and parallel protocol independent data streams over pair of single mode optical fiber. Our 16 channel CWDM multiplexer will use 8S0 skip filter to achieve the ultra-low insertion loss. Standard configuration will maintain 1% optical power at monitoring port to ensure easy troubleshooting without any downtime.
16 Channel CWDM system supports multiple protocols and media types, including Ethernet, SDH, SONET, and Fibre Channel, to suit any combination of applications. In addition, with the ability to scale to 16 channels, operators can easily increase network capacity as demand grows. Rugged and durable materials to withstand even the harshest environments, whether it is extreme temperatures, high humidity or dusty conditions.
