Multiplexer / Demultiplexer

 

 

General Description

 

 
The  OFM-4264  is  coarse  wave  division  optical  wavelength  division  multiplexer  /  demultiplexer  (CWDM)  for 
combining  and  separating  up  to  four  optical  signals  of  1510nm,  1530nm,  1550nm  and  1570nm  wavelengths  for 
either uni-directional or bi-directional transmission on the one fibre. 
 
With  the  high  cost  of  hiring  or  installing  additional  dark  fibre  it  makes  economical  sense  to  maximise  the  use  of 
existing infrastructure. 
 
Used in combination with IRT’s extensive range of fibre transmitters / receivers and interface modules, a myriad of 
different  signals  types  can  be  sent  down  the  one  fibre.  With  IRT’s  four  channel  fibre  multiplexer/demultiplexer 
modules, for example, up to sixteen SDI signals can be sent down a single fibre. Or up to sixty-four ASI signals can 
be sent when also used with IRT’s ASI multiplexer/demultiplexer modules. 
 
The OFM-4264 is designed to mount in IRT’s 1RU or 4000 series 3RU frame.
