Data Sheet
4 Band (10-skip-0) Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer for
40 Channel systems
Bookham offers a high performance banded optical add/drop
multiplexer (OADM) for 40 channel systems enabling 100GHz
channel add/drop functionality with four 10-skip-0 bands.
These band filters use Bookham proprietary Advanced
Energetic Deposition (AED) thin film technology for superior
performance.
Features:
• Passive operation
• 10-skip-0 100GHz band structure
(based on 27.5GHz wide channels)
With band demux and mux ports connected, this 4 band
module provides low and constant loss across each band.
Channel add/drop function can be added at any time by
substituting the appropriate jumper with 10 channel mux and
demux modules.
• Flexible upgrade path to 40 channel add/drop function
using 10ch mux-demux modules
The Bookham 4 band solutions offers the superior
combination of fully passive operation, low loss, compact
size, and wide pass bands. Bookham’s thin film technology
provides a flat-topped pass band design that allows for
less stringent control of the laser wavelength over the
system lifetime.
• High adjacent channel isolation
Available in rack-mount, LGX, and stand-alone module
packaging, the 4 band OADM solution allows the flexibility to
add individual channel demux/mux modules as needed while
keeping the loss for other bands constant.
• Low express loss (< 3.1 dB)
• Flat pass band design
• -5 to 70°C operating temperature
• Compact Size (single LGX)
• Telcordia GR-1221 Qualified
• RoHS compliant
Options:
• Rack mount packaging (1-RU shelf unit )
• Stand-alone packaging (120x80x8mm)
• Optical monitor ports
Applications:
• Metro and long-haul mux/demux
• OADM nodes
• Subsystem building block
