Aurora Networks’ BP-35D4x series Optical Demux Back Plates facilitate implementation of Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) architectures. DWDM technology can dramatically increase network capacity without requiring that additional fiber be deployed for super-trunking or narrowcasting applications.

Aurora's unique packaging of these 4-channel demultipexers as back plates that can be easily attached to the rear of the CH3000 chassis eliminates the need to allocate internal chassis slots for dedicated demultiplexer modules.

The flexibility and efficiency of the BP-35D4x packaging concept is particularly noteworthy when these back plates are mated with up to four model AR3002-1-AS or AR3012-1-AS Analog Forward Receivers installed in adjacent slots of the CH3000 chassis.

All BP-35D4x series mulitiplexers also feature passthrough DWDM input and output ports so that the signals from two units may be cascaded to demultiplex a multi-channel signal carrying up to eight ITU channels received on a single optical fiber.

Features

•  Unique 4-module-wide back plate design provides demultiplexing function
    without need for internal chassis slot
•  Eliminates four patch cords
•  4 channels spaced on standard 100 GHz DWDM ITU Grid
    (10 channel plans available)
•  Mux and demux pairs optimized for minimum combined insertion loss
    across all channels
•  Flat-top passband
•  High optical isolation
•  SC/APC connectors ensure performance repeatability, compatibility
    and easy installation and maintenance
•  Designed for use with AR30x2-1-AS series Analog Forward
    Receivers
