WDM Components
SWDM / CWDM 850-1610nm
The Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexer (CWDM) employs thin-film coating technology and a proprietary non-flux metal-bonded micro-optics packaging design to enable optical add/drop functionality across ITU channel wavelengths from 1270 to 1610 nm. It delivers low insertion loss and wide passbands at each ITU center wavelength, along with high channel isolation. The device features low temperature sensitivity and an epoxy-free optical path, ensuring high reliability and performance for polarization-maintaining systems.

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect SWDM / CWDM 850-1610nm to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Fiber Type: SM28, 50/125, PM1310, PM1550, F · Fiber Cover: 900 μm tube
- Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
- Wavelength and loss budget
- ITU Wavelength: 1270 nm, 1290 nm, 1310 nm, 1330 nm
- Check the WDM Components passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
