OP3xSx
Series Optical Splitters / Combiners |
Aurora Networks' OP3xSx family of splitters and combiners have been designed
with high uniformity, low insertion loss and polarization dependent loss. The product
family of modules includes 1x4, 2x4, 1x8 and 1x16 splitters/combiners; dual 1x2, 1x3 and
2x2 splitters/combiners; and a family of dual 1x2 splitters/combiners having unbalanced
outputs with split ratios ranging from 55/45 to 99/1. A unique scalable 8x8 splitter/combiner
is also available from Aurora Networks (and described here).
All modules utilize SC/APC type connectors that can be removed for easy cleaning.
Aurora Networks' single mode, multiband splitters and combiners are packaged in
Aurora's very compact half-depth module for mounting in the CH3000 chassis. 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.
