CWDM-OADM1-1530 Dual Single Channel OADM Module

CWDM-OADM1-1530 Overview

The Dual Single-Channel OADMs (CWDM-OADM1-xxxx) allows you to add/drop two channels of the same wavelength into the two directions of an optical ring. The other wavelengths are passed through the OADM. The dual single-channel OADMs are transparent to the 1300-nm wavelength and includes a 1300-nm/1500-nm filter to mix legacy SONET/SDH/ATM ring installations with CWDM installations on the same optical fiber. Dual fiber is used for both the network and the CWDM GBIC and CWDM SFP connections. Eight versions of this OADM are available, one for each wavelength of light. (See Table 2.) The dual single-channel OADMs are color coded and match the color coding of the CWDM GBIC and CWDM SFP transceivers. The dual single-channel OADM modules are equipped with a monitor port that allows you to attach a power meter or an optical spectrum analyzer to assist you in monitoring and troubleshooting the network.
