LambdaDriver Optical Splitter Module
EM800-MP2/5 , EM800/EM1600-RBBS
The optical passive splitter modules are building blocks of the LambdaDriver Optical Transport System and serve at optical communication nodes to divide/split the optical bandwidth to portions of optical sub-bands. The applications include: a. In service Power monitoring – A portion (usually 5%, but can be up to 50%) of the incoming optical signal is taken to a “monitor” port for connecting to measurement equipment while the rest of the signal is transported transparently to the output port. b. Separating the optical spectrum into different bands - Band Splitter devices transport a limited band to a specific output port. For example the “Red”/”Blue” Band Splitter separates the incoming optical signal between two output ports, each forwarding only the channels that belong to the specific band (Red or Blue). c. Combining/Splitting DWDM 100GHz spaced channels over 50GHz spacing transport – Interleaver. In order to increase the number of DWDM wavelengths forwarded over existing infrastructure, 100GHz spaced channels shifted by 50GHz are combined by the interleaver thus doubling the number of channels transported over the same media.
