express DWDM Multiplexer
Maximum Throughput over Fiber Optic
The flexible express DWDMDWDM
(Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing)
A method of transmitting many connections parallel over one fiber optic line.
Transmission works over different wavelengths (colors) on the same fiber, which
More .../OADM concept allows making the optimum use of your current fiber optic infrastructure in an ideal way.
Using the highly-effective Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technique, it will transmit more than 40 connections of different standards, data rates or protocols over one common fiber optic link. In conjunction with modern transceivers, data rates of up to 10 Gbit/s per channel are available.
The cascadability of the express DWDM system allows an individual and modular construction of your passive fiber optic infrastructure: one DWDM multiplexer connects up to 16 channels over a point-to-point bus, while you can drop and insert channels or build an optical add-and-drop DWDM ring with the complementary DWDM drop/pass and drop/insert units.
The express DWDM system also supports extending an existing CWDM application. When connecting express DWDM multiplexers to two of the CWDM channels, 16 additional DWDM channels can be supplied.
Due to its purely passive technology, the express DWDM series is well-prepared for building a fail-safe and maintenance-free backbone architecture.
