The CWDM-18 is an optical multiplexer that can multiplex up to 18 CWDM sources on a single optical fiber for the Flashlink range with only 5.4dB link insertion loss.
The CWDM filter has high channel isolation and can therefore be used in a bi-directional system. The module can be used as a multiplexer or de-multiplexer and uses a single slot in a Flashlink frame or can be used, standalone, in an N-box. The CWDM-18 can be used together with the Flashlink optical converter, including the L-band, and with Flashlink Compact and VikinX Optical Sublime with CWDM SFP to transmit 18 signals over a single fiber.
