Dense wavelength-division multiplexer

Dense wavelength-division multiplexer

The SpectralWave dense wavelength-division multiplexer offers solutions for carriers faced with meeting increasing capacity demands while dealing with limited fiber-pair availability. The device multiplexes and demultiplexes up to 32 OC-48 (2.5-Gbit/sec) optical channels into a single optical fiber. With deployment of four inline optical amplifiers, the unit allows up to 400 km of long-distance transmission before regeneration is required. It is also configured to provide optical add/drop multiplexer capabilities that enable carriers to remotely access 100% of the provisioned wavelengths and provide add/drop capabilities at selected repeater sites.
