WaveReady
Modular 20 to 80-channel C-band and L-band DWDM System
Key Features
TM
• High-density packing for full C- and L-bands
• High-channel uniformity
• In-service capacity upgrade from 20 to 80 channels in
20-channel increments
• Flexible mounting: 19” or 23” EIA racks
• Thermally stable passive optics; no power required
The WaveReady™ 20- to 80-channel mux/demux system is a scalable, high-
capacity Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) solution allowing up
to 80 channels in the C- and L-bands to be multiplexed to a single fiber.
In-service upgradeable in 20-channel increments, the 80-channel Mux/Demux
system provides the benefits of low first-channel cost without limiting total
system capacity. The upgrades include (with model numbers):
Applications
– The MDX-20UX10xxB supports 20 C- or L-band channels
– The MDX-02UXW001B supports 20 or 40 C1 and C2 channels
– The MDX-04UXW001B supports 20 or 40 C1 and C2 channels and 20 or
40 L1 and L2 channels
Using JDSU’s industry-leading passive DWDM technology, the 20- to 80-channel
DWDM system requires no electrical power and generates no heat, noise or
radiated emissions.
• Terminal mux/demux applications
• High capacity optical transmission
systems
• Bidirectional transmission on a
single fiber
• Linear and ring architectures
requiring wavelength reuse
Compliance
• ITU-T G694.1; GR-1209; GR-1221
• RoHS compliant
