4CH (8 Wavelengths) DWDM MUX/DEMUX C53–C60
Single Fiber Passive DWDM Multiplexer – LGX4 Module
The 4CH (8 wavelengths) DWDM MUX/DEMUX is a passive optical multiplexing device designed for high-capacity fiber transmission systems. The unit operates within the DWDM C-band channels C53 to C60 and enables multiple optical signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single fiber.
This DWDM solution uses 100 GHz channel spacing and allows up to 8 wavelengths to be combined and separated on a single fiber, enabling efficient utilization of fiber infrastructure without requiring active equipment.
The device is delivered as an LGX4 plug-in module, making it suitable for deployment in LGX racks, DWDM transport systems, telecom networks and data center interconnects.
