The MetroWAVE product range offers a series of passive CWDM optical multiplexing functions allowing a range of totally independent applications to be converged over a singlemode fibre pair. Each application operates at a different wavelength with the MetroWAVE multiplexers optically combining these together for transmission and then separating them out again at the other end of the fibre. Different protocols with different data rates can be supported. Monitor ports can be used in conjunction with the MetroWAVE-powermeter to check whether all applications are present, without disturbing the operation of the live system.
The MetroWAVE family consists of:
* MetroWAVE-5 : 4+1-channel(1471 to 1531nm + 1300nm band) CWDM multiplexer with CWDM expansion port and monitor port
* MetroWAVE-4A : 4-channel (1551 to 1611nm) CWDM multiplexer with CWDM expansion port (add on to
* MetroWAVE-5 to make MetroWAVE-9)
* MetroWAVE-9 : 8+1-channel (1471nm to 1611nm + 1300nm band CWDM multiplexer with monitor port
* MetroWAVE-powermeter : 18-channel CWDM power meter
* MetroWAVE-rack : mounts 3 off MetroWAVE CWDM multiplexers into 1U of a 19 inch rack
The current MetroWAVE products all operate in the upper 1550nm CWDM band with support for the lower 1300nm band via a wideband 1300nm port. This means that they can support direct connection of legacy 1300nm non-CWDM equipment.
The MetroWAVE-powermeter allows all 18 off CWDM channels to be monitored simultaneously, which when used in conjunction with the monitor ports enables easy but sophisticated system level debug.
Whilst the MetroWAVE product range is compatible with industry standard user exchangeable SFPs, it is recommended that these are purchased from Metrodata for use in Metrodata fibre equipment to guarantee their specification and compatibility with each other.
