Key Benefits

Ideal Solution for Metro, Long Haul and DCI

DWDM and CWDM Mux/Demux interconnects seamlessly with EDFA, OLP, OEO and third party WDM products. Thus they can create a flexible and scalable point-to-point or ring network, which enables organizations to increase bandwidth as needed without capital investment in a dedicated network. More importantly, as they offer virtually unlimited scalability for organizations expanding their corporate networks, FS Mux and Demux are proven to be an optimal choice for solutions in optical networking applications such as Submarine, Long-haul, Metro, and Cloud/DCI.

Different Transmission Rates in Mux/Demux

FS DWDM and CWDM Mux and Demux enable different rates of data to be transmitted simultaneously without disturbance among the transmissions. It ensures a consistent rate of multiplexing and demultiplexing. With multiplexing of up to 96 channels on a single fiber or fiber pair, DWDM Mux/Demux can maximize the use of the fiber. It is able to be used with colored transceivers for various applications such as 1G/10G/25G/40G/100G Ethernet, SDH/SONET,4/8/16/32G Fibre Channel, OTU3 and OTU4, etc.

Easy Troubleshooting Without Delaying Traffic

For DWDM and CWDM Mux and Demux with monitor ports, two different links for monitoring can be provided, usually at a split of 1% (2%, 3%, 5% also available). One is network link monitoring. It adopts OPD card integrated in an FMT managed chassis to realize the monitor through MonitorCable management software. The other is network power monitoring, which connects the power meter with monitor port to ensure easy troubleshooting without any downtime.

User-Friendly and Cost-Effective Design

For FS Mux/Demux, each channel is marked with colored line or band parameter for easy identification, ensuring fast and accurate installation. For example, the color label on your CWDM Mux/Demux helps you match the corresponding optical transceivers to the exact ports so that no mistakes will be made, saving both your time and energy. Furthermore, 8CH DWDM and CWDM Mux/Demux comes with a toolless plug and play design, making it more convenient to deploy a flexible mix of CWDM/DWDM Mux/Demux and MPO cassettes within 1U.

Testimonial

40CH C21-C60, DWDM Mux Demux

This is a fantastic way to utilize DWDM. It's just as intuitive as a standard patch bay, just plug into the right channel on both ends. This uses the standard duplex positions, so there's no second-guessing which direction your fibers should plug in.
