Data Sheet
10 Channel Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer with
Band VOAs
Bookham offers a high performance 10 channel optical
add/drop multiplexer solution for 100GHz channels.
This module’s express port allows an upgrade path to 40
channels. Electronic variable optical attenuators (VOAs) with
tap/detectors are included for band-by-band loss adjustment.
Features:
• Flexible upgrade path to 40 channels
• Flat pass band design
The Bookham 10 channel solution offers an ideal combination
of low loss, compact size, wide channel pass bands and an
upgrade path to 40 channels. Specified loss of <5.8dB is
achieved in the uniform loss version of the product. Matched
mux-demux pairs are also available as a design option.
Ribbon connector outputs are available as a design option.
Thin film technology provides a flat-topped pass band design
that allows for less stringent control of the laser wavelength
over the system lifetime.
• 0.22nm clear pass band
These flexible upgrade modules use the Bookham 10-skip-0
banded upgrade port. The 10-skip-0 filter passes ten 100GHz
spaced channels to the ITU channel filters. The same filter
reflects all remaining channels onto the express port with very
low loss. Modules can be cascaded to form 20, 30, or 40
channel filter solutions.
• Telcordia GR-1221 qualified
• Low loss (<5.8dB)
• High adjacent channel isolation
• -5 to 70°C operating temperature
• Compact size (135x18x19mm)
• Band loss adjustment
• 0 to 5 Vdc VOA control
• RoHS compliant
Options:
• Ribbon connectors
• Uniform loss or matched mux/demux loss
• Tap/detector before and/or after VOA
• Without 10-skip-0 filter
• Rack mount or LGX enclosure
Applications:
• Metro and long-haul mux/demux
• OADM nodes
• Subsystem building block
