Pluggables WDM Products
With the combined benefits of SFP interfaces, multi-rate, multi-port transponders and passive Mux/Demux technology incorporated into a modular, 'building block' architecture, the Fiber Driver Pluggable Modular WDM system delivers an unprecedented level of WDM flexibility and scalability, including distances of 100km and resilient ring topologies, while lowering deployment and maintenance costs, reducing parts inventory and improving ROI.
SFP-Based Transponders:
- Multifunctional WDM connectivity - media conversion (multimode to single-mode, copper to fi ber), wavelength conversion, signal boosting and more
- Pluggable CWDM SFP interfaces
- High density 1RU system with 16 Dual-SFP channels or 1-slot module with 2 SFP data ports
- Rate independent with 2R/3R signal conditioning- 100 Mbps to 2.7 Gbps
- Support for SFP digital diagnostics as per SFF-8472
- Compatible with Fiber Driver Passive Mux/Demux modules
- Fits any Fiber Driver pluggable module chassis
- Modular version fi ts any Fiber Driver pluggable module chassis
SFP-Based Cross Connects:
- Multifunctional WDM connectivity - media conversion (multimode to single-mode, copper to fiber), wavelength conversion, signal boosting, signal repeating and more
- Pluggable CWDM SFP interfaces
- High-density 1RU system with 32 SFP ports or 1-slot module with 4 SFP data ports
- Per channel selectable data rate transponder with 2R/3R signal regeneration - 100 Mbps to 2.7 Gbps
- Crossbar connectivity - any port to any port, port-to-multiport, and trunk switching
- Support for SFP digital diagnostics as per SFF-8472
- Compatible with Fiber Driver Passive Mux/Demux modules
- Modular version fi ts any Fiber Driver pluggable module chassis
- IRU version supports 2 protocol independent monitoring ports
Passive CWDM Mux/Demux Modules:
- Solutions for multiplexing/demultiplexing 2, 4, 8 or 16 Full Duplex data channels, up to 32 channels using single fi ber technology
- Transparent, protocol independent operation
- Secure physical separation between data channels
- Minimal dB loss per link
- Fully passive device - requires no power
- High-density form factor - up to 8 channels in a 1-slot module, 16 channels in two slots
The image above shows a sample configuration using the EM316-DMR and PAMUL passive mux products in a simple point-to-point WDM configuration. SFP interfaces are used both for the host access (SFP-GD-SX) and for the 'colored' ports (SFP-GD-CWZX-xx)
