CWDM MUX/DEMUX Duplex 8ch, 1310nm bypass port, MON port and UPG port. LGX4-SP
8-Channel CWDM MUX/DEMUX with 1310nm Bypass port
This unit is a high-performance 8-channel Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexer/Demultiplexer (CWDM) engineered for carrier-grade optical networking. Designed for LGX4-SP modular chassis, it enables efficient wavelength multiplexing and demultiplexing, maximizing fiber utilization in metro, access, and enterprise environments.
Technical Highlights
Channel Configuration: 8 CWDM channels operating from 1470nm to 1610nm, spaced at 20 nm intervals for optimal spectral efficiency.
1310nm Bypass Port:
- Seamless Legacy Integration: The dedicated 1310nm bypass allows you to carry existing Gigabit Ethernet, SONET/SDH, or legacy traffic without disruption.
- Zero Service Interruption: Add or remove wavelengths without impacting the 1310 nm channel.
- Future-Proof Design: Supports migration from legacy systems to CWDM without costly infrastructure changes.
Upgrade Port (UPG): Provides a scalable path for adding more channels as network demands grow.
Monitoring Port (MON): Enables real-time optical power monitoring for proactive troubleshooting and performance assurance.
Low Insertion Loss: Maintains signal integrity across all channels.
High Channel Isolation: Minimizes crosstalk for superior transmission quality.
Compact LGX4 Form Factor: Ideal for space-constrained racks and modular platforms.
