As the need for information is increasing, the need for bandwidth is also increasing. WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology was developed to expand capacity of networks. A WDM system uses a Multiplexer at the transmitter to combine several wavelengths together, each one carry different signal with bite-rate up to 10G and a demultiplexer at the receiver to split them apart. Both Mux and Demux are passive, requiring no power supply.
Classification
CWDM : Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexer, Wavelength interval is 20nm
DWDM : Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing, wavelength interval is1.6nm(200GHZ), 0.8nm (100GHZ), 0.4nm (50GHZ)
OADM : Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer
Explanation of related terms
● MUX, optical multiplexing.
● DMUX, optical demultiplexing.
● Single fiber unidirectional, single fiber, unidirectional transmission
● Single fiber bidirectional, single fiber bidirectional transmission.
● Two-fiber bidirectional, two-fiber transmission, two-way transmission
Related port explanation
● UPG upgrade port: Upgrade Port, which can upgrade all wavelengths except the wavelength in use, but the isolation is only Can guarantee> 13dB, for the module of traditional craft, only increase the cost of a connector and adapter;
● EXP expansion port: 1310nm Express Port is an upgrade to a specific wavelength, currently mainly used for 1260~1350nm The band is expanded and upgraded, and the isolation can be more than 30dB, but it not only increases the cost of a connector and adapter, it is a complete channel cost
● MON monitoring port: Monitor Port, which uses the Coupler to take out part of the light to monitor the signal in the link. Learn about the specific splitting ratio over there, generally 1% or 2%.

CWDM
Nowadays there are two kinds of standardized WDM in existence—Coarse WDM and Dense WDM. Defined by ITU-T G694.2, CWDM systems have channels at wavelengths spaced 20nm apart, compared with 0.4nm spacing for DWDM. This allows the use of low-cost, uncooled lasers for CWDM.
A CWDM system can use only 8 channels at wavelengths after 1470nm on older G652 fibers, due to the increased attenuation in 1270-1470nm bands. Newer fibers which conform to the G.652.C and G.652.D standards, such as Corning SMF-28e and Samsung Wide pass nearly eliminate the “water peak” attenuation peak and allow for full operation of all 18 ITU CWDM channels in all kinds of networks.
Passive CWDM System
In application, CWDM transceivers are used to transform electronically signal from Routers/switches or other active equipment to optical signal at CWDM wavelength or reversely transform CWDM optical signal to electronically signal. Sopto is your best one-stop source of transceivers and Passive CWDM filters/modules to meet your application.
