Cisco Prisma Data Multiplexer/Demultiplexer

Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing (CWDM) has gained prevalence in multi-wavelength digital transport architectures because it enables the use of very low cost un-cooled DFB laser transmitters. Moreover, powering requirements are reduced and reliability is increased.

Prisma® CWDM filters provide the essential wavelength muxing/demuxing in these systems. Configurations of 1, 4, 8 or 10 channels are available to provide maximum design flexibility. The single channel version can be ordered in any of the 10 standard ITU-grid wavelengths and functions as Optical Add-Drop Mux (OADM). The 4, 8 and 10 channel versions are designed for minimum flat insertion loss.

• Applications such as Service Navigators, Games, and many other future applications
• Mux/Demux available in cassette style package for outside plant applications
• OADM available in raw-filter style package for outside plant applications
• Raw-filter or cassette style package for outside plant applications
• SC/APC connectors standard, other options available
• Industry Standard LGX-Style enclosures for indoor device
• Low Insertion loss (4, 8 and 10 channel versions optimized for minimum flat insertion loss)
• Available in single channel Add/Drop or 4, 8 and 10 channel versions on standard ITU-grid wavelengths (1431 nm-1611 nm) on 20 nm spacing
