AAWG

Athermal Arrayed Waveguide Grating

Product Description                                

AAWGAthermal Arrayed-Waveguide Grating mainly is used in DWDM system. It transmits signal by making different ITU-T DWDM wavelength signals multiplex to single fiber in receiving terminal. It decomposes composite signal into different ITU-T DWDM wavelength signal. The product has a low insertion loss, high channel insertion loss consistency, nothing external power supply and so on.

Product features

♦  Low insertion loss

♦  High consistency channelinsertion loss

♦  Low polarization dependent loss

♦  High channel isolation

♦   Without power supply

♦   Excellent environmentalreliability

♦  High level of integration by plug-in design
