COMMUNICATIONS COMPONENTS
50/100 GHz, 100/200 GHz Passive Interleavers
IBC Series
Key Features
• Low dispersion
• Low insertion loss
• High channel isolation
• Wide clear bandwidth
• Full C- or L-band coverage
• Athermal design
Applications
• Extend existing network capacity
• Bridge existing and new DWDM
platforms
• Ultra-dense DWDM mux/demux
and add/drop
• Bidirectional networks
• Comb filter
The JDSU Interleaver is a terabit-enabling technology for ultra-dense wavelength-
division multiplexing (DWDM) applications. When used in the mux
configuration, the interleaver combines two streams of periodic optical signals
(one stream carries even channels and the other odd channels) into one stream of
signals of half the channel spacing. When used in the demux configuration, the
signal is separated into two complementary streams (even and odd channels) of
twice the channel spacing.
The low dispersion interleaver is based on patented technology. It features a wide
clear bandwidth, minimal thermal drift, low insertion loss, low ripple, and low
polarization dependent loss (PDL). Temperature control is not required.
