Athermal AWG for narrow channel spacing DWDM system
50GHz spacing Athermal AWG

This AWG is compatible with the 0.4nm wavelength (50GHz optical frequency) spacing DWDM system, which is used for increasing optical wavelength multiplicity.

Considering the general signal modulation speed and the wavelength fluctuation width of the light source, wideband type AWG is recommended in this category of narrow channel spacing AWG.
Depending on the wavelength band, we provide two kinds of AWG, one for the C-band and the other for the L-band. Expandable up to 96channels, we can cover either wavelength band with only one module.

FEATURES

  • No need for temperature control (zero power dissipation)
  • large number of channel up to 96ch
  • Flat-top filter shape with very low insertion loss
  • Polarization insensitive
  • Available 2-in-1 configuration
  • Same package size as 100 GHz MSA (120x70x7 mm)
  • Passed GR-1209-CORE and GR-1221-CORE
