OP34F1D
Single-channel CWDM Optical Filters
for Ethernet Access System |
Aurora Networks’ OP34F1D series Single-channel CWDM Optical Filters are
three-port filters that are used to add (or drop) a CWDM wavelength to (or from) a set of CWDM
optical wavelengths, where the wavelengths range from 1430 nm to 1610 nm on the CWDM ITU
grid (i.e., with 20 nm spacing). Each OP34F1D module contains two sets of identical
filter ports (performing add/drop functions on the same wavelength).
These filters have been designed with low insertion loss and high channel
isolation, and are packaged in Aurora's very compact half-depth module for mounting in
the CH3000 chassis or PF3000 frame. The packaging concept for Aurora’s family of optical
passives is similar to the well recognized LGX package; and, although Aurora's version
of the LGX module is slightly narrower (for higher packaging density), it will also mount
in any standard LGX chassis. Aurora's implementation maintains the advantages of the LGX
concept (which enables easy, snap-in installation) while providing higher packaging density,
greater flexibility and scalability to the network operator.
