All-fiber multiplexer

All-fiber multiplexer

The all-fiber WaveSplitter dwdm features low (<2 dB) overall insertion loss and can be used both to multiplex and to demultiplex wavelengths on optical fibers. Based upon an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the WaveSplitter uses M-Z substractive structures, which include fiber-optic couplers "cascading" to increase channel and port counts. The dwdm modules are compact, sized at approximately 8 ¥ 10 ¥ 1 inches, depending on the number of channels, and have a thermal drift specification of 0.005 nm over the operating range of 0 to 50 C. The technology is available in 4-, 8- and 16-channel 1550-nm models.
