This data sheet includes optical wavelength filters, multiplexers, and demultiplexers that operate in the C-band from 1525 to 1565 nm as well as band filters to combine C-band transmission optics with1310-nm sources. Included here are shelf-based components (LGX style), cassette-based components for use in field fiber enclosures, and passives designed to fit in Cisco® nodes.
As commonly used in fiber-optic distribution systems, these passive components are used to combine or separate individual or bands of wavelengths into a single fiber to economize and improve the efficiency of optical transmission systems for voice, video, and data networks. Typical applications include overlay of narrowcast and broadcast cable TV signals and bidirectional transmission of data.
The products specified here include all those for use with Cisco Prisma® headend optical transmitters including the legacy1310-nm line, the SuperQAM1.2 products, and the high-performance LRMW transmitters. Also included are passives designed to work with the GS7000 and GainMaker® line of nodes. The shelf-based passives are packaged in industry-standard LGX-style modules of varying widths depending on the number and type of connectors used (Figure 1). Cassette-style passives for field use may be screw-mounted in widely available splice enclosures and consist of metallic housings with connectorized, color-coded, and labeled break-out cables for ease of identification. Passives for use in the GS7000 nodes are fit into a specially designed housing that readily mounts in the lid of the node.
The passives are available in a variety of configurations that reflect differing uses and channel plans. Overlay and multiwave-reverse systems use contiguous ITU channels, while iWDM channel plans maximize co-propagating wavelengths when power, modulation type, or increased linearity performance is required. The options are described in the tables that follow.
The iWDM plan consists of 16 wavelengths in the C-band in the range of ITU 21 through ITU 62. Although there are predefined offsets for some of the 16 wavelengths, the multiplexer and demultiplexer of optical signals can continue to be supported through standard ITU optical passives because the offsets are within the guard band of the passive - typically 0.12 nm.
Cisco Prisma interoperable multiwavelength optics passives multiplexer and demultiplexer components (Figure 1) are essential when iWDM is implemented to increase network efficiency by significantly reducing fiber counts. Most units are available in the industry-recognized, LGX-compatible form factor to allow easy, snap-in mounting in a variety of enclosures and cabinets.
Features
● Channel spacing is 100 GHz, compliant with the ITU standard wavelength grid.
● Filters passbands are compatible with 100-GHz systems for all channel plans.
● Analog, QAM, and baseband digital modulation are supported for maximum flexibility in application.
● LGX modules easily snap into a wide variety of enclosures and cabinets.
● Cassette modules for outside plant environments use 900-um breakout cables for easy fiber handling.
● Wavelength multiplexer and demultiplexer groupings include
◦ Matched pairs of LGX and cassette modules for ease of system configuration
◦ Compatibility of all wavelength combinations for flexibility in deployments
● Connector types include
◦ LC/APC connectors in LGX modules for improved density in headend racks
◦ SC/APC connectors on cassettes for easy handling in outside plant environments
