1U rack DWDM 8CH W/O Card

The 1U Rack DWDM 8CH MUX/DEMUX (Without Card) is a high-performance, passive optical device designed for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) applications. It enables efficient multiplexing and demultiplexing of up to 8 DWDM channels onto a single pair of optical fibers, greatly increasing the bandwidth capacity of existing fiber   infrastructure. Housed in a standard 1U 19-inch rack-mount chassis, this unit is ideal for use in telecom rooms, data centers, and enterprise networks. The "Without Card" configuration means it comes as a passive module without a monitoring card, fan, or power requirement—making it maintenance-free and highly reliable.

          Key Features:

1.     Form Factor: 1U 19-inch rack-mount enclosure

2.     Channel Count: 8 DWDM channels (customizable ITU-T Grid, e.g., C21 to C28)

3.     Type: Passive MUX/DEMUX (no power or card required)

4.     Connector Type: LC/UPC or LC/APC (customizable)

5.     Fiber Type: Singlemode (G.652D or G.657A1)

6.     Wavelength Spacing: 100GHz or 200GHz ITU-T DWDM Grid

7.     Insertion Loss: ≤ 3.5 dB (typical)

8.     Channel Isolation: ≥ 30 dB (adjacent), ≥ 40 dB (non-adjacent)

9.     Return Loss: ≥ 45 dB

10. Operating Temperature: -5°C to +75°C

11. Storage Temperature: -40°C to +85°C

12. No power required (passive device)

          Applications:

1.     DWDM network expansion
