GLOBALfiber 16 ch. DWDM Mux+Demux 19”1RU
The GLOBALfiber 16-channel DWDM Mux/Demux is a passive optical multiplexing device designed for high-density wavelength transmission in the C-band. It supports ITU-T G.694.1 100GHz spacing and channels C21 to C36 (1560.61 nm to 1548.51 nm), enabling increased fiber capacity without deploying additional fiber infrastructure.
The integrated 1310 nm legacy port allows traditional optical services (1G/10G/40G/100G) to coexist with DWDM channels. The expansion port provides a simple upgrade path for additional wavelength capacity, while the monitor port enables non-intrusive optical power monitoring and troubleshooting.
APPLICATIONS
• Metro and long-haul telecom networks
• Data center interconnect (DCI)
• Enterprise and private fiber networks
