8 channels 1270 1610nm 1.6 dB IL ultra compact CWDM mux demux device

Overview

Future Optics’ 8 CH UC-CWDM is one model of new generation CWDM mux demux serie devices with 21x15.5x6.5mm footprint and 1.6dB insert loss.

Based on TFF and Free-space technology, taking patent advantage of optical path Zig-Zag design of multi-layers and all glass structure, Future Optics’ UC-CWDM devices are of ultra-small size, extreme low insert loss, high reliability and excellent performance in comparing with traditional Three-port cascaded CWDM modules, they’re truly idea WDM gadgets which totally meet demand of new generation communication trend: smaller footprint, higher performance and energy efficient.

Free-space optical path Zig-Zag design VS Three port fiber routing: 

  Traditional Three-port WDM:  Fiber routing inside                              Future Optics Free-space WDM: Optical path management inside  

Specifications:

 Features

Extreme small footprint and fiber in and out on the same side, easily to manage.

Extreme low insertion loss, to improve quality and to extend transmission distance.

Excellent thermal stability to work at wide operating temperature range.                 

Each channel can be adjusted individually, to get high wavelength accuracy. 

Extremely compressed optical path, avoiding dispersion problems caused by optical path compensation between channels, excellent channel-to-channel uniformity.             

Stainless steel house, laser welding package,  metal tube to protect fiber, suitable for harsh environment. 

Application

Future Optics' UC-CWDM Mux Demux is usually used for extending maximum distance of CWDM links, and flexible mix of 1G/10G/25G/40G/100G/200G Ethernet, SAN, OTN, SDH/SONET and native video services. Because of  its small footprint,  UC -CWDM is also used to be integrated inside CWDM transceiver to save space for laser and PD devices.                      

Technologies:

• Optical Path Zig-Zag inside:  Fiber in the same side and same direction, easy for management  


• Two Layer structure, extremely compact. Typical Footprint: 1x4:6x8x20mm, 1x18:6.5x21x24mm


• TFF and Free Space. low IL:1x4, IL<1.0 dB, 1x18 IL<2.0 dB (typical)


• All Glass Structure, Stable and Reliable (-40 to 85C)


• Epoxy Free in Optical Path


• Kovar Housing

 The same glass material: collimators, triangle blocks and base              Glass frame as spacer to bond filters without epoxy in optical path

                                                           

                                                 Triangle glass block to assure contact in any cases                       Kovar Housing ----the same CTE as glass BK7
