DWDM Mux/Demux modules are part of a series of high performance products based on silica-on-silicon planar technology. The AWG chips F-tone used for DWDM Mux/Demux are targeted for Long-Haul, Metro and access applications, where outstanding optical performance and low cost are paramount.
Athermal Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AAWG)is a high-performance DWDM mux/demux device without the need for temperature stabilization, electrical power, software. Athermal AWG s allow multiplexing and demultiplexing of DWDM signals over a wide operating temperature range, without the need for heater drive and monitoring electronics.
Thermal Arrayed Waveguide Grating (TAWG) DWDM Modules are are designed for use within the C-band release of DWDM system. Due to the temperature dependence of center wavelength, the AWG die requires a heater element (and control electronics when needed) that keeps the AWG at a certain temperature within 68-80°C to maintain the optical performance from 5°C to 65°C of environmental temperature.
The channel spacing for DWDM is 1.6/0.8/0.4 nm (200GHz/100 GHz/50 GHz grid). This small channel spacing allows to transmit simultaneously much more information.
