Simplex CWDM MUX
GEZHI Multiplexer (MUX) work with demultiplexer (DEMUX) on the other side for single directional data transmission over one fiber.
GEZHI Photonics 8CH CWDM Mux/Demux Module is a passive technology, it allows for any protocol to be transported over the link, as long as it is at a specific wavelength (i.e. T1 over fiber at 1570nm transported alongside 10Gbps Ethernet at 1590nm). This allows for long-term future proofing of the networking infrastructure because the multiplexers simply refract light at any network speed, regardless of the protocol being deployed.
GEZHI Photonics provides a complete portfolio of CWDM Mux Demux and Optical Add Drop Multiplexer(OADM) units to suit all applications such as: Gigabit & 10G Ethernet, SDH/SONET, ATM, ESCON, Fibre Channel, FTTx and CATV. And we provide optional port configurations such as: Express Port, Monitor Port,1310nm passband port and 1550nm port for these multiplexers according to customer choice.
Front Panel Details

A Common port:
- LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
B Standard port 1310nm:
- Allows a legacy 1310nm signal to pass. That is to say, it can carry LR optics, LX optics etc.
- LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
C Standard port 1550nm:
- Allows a legacy 1550nm signal to pass. That is to say, it can carry ER optics, ZR optics, LX optics, ZX optics etc.
- LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
D Mux/Demux port for specific wavelengths:
- LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
- Compliant with the ITU G.657A1 standard as default.
E Express port:
- Enables the cascading of two CWDM mux/demux modules, doubling the channel capacity on the common fiber link.
- Channel Isolation is 15dB as default, 16dB ~40dB available on request.
- LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
F Monitor port:
- Connects measurement/monitoring equipment, such as power meters or network analyzers, to the module outputs.
- When finished monitoring, disconnect the instruments and the network is left undisturbed.
- LC, SC, ST and FC connectors available.
- Tap percentage is 5% as default, 1%, 2%, 3%, or 10% available on request.
NOTE:
Actual layout depends on the chosen connector type as well as other factors. However, the principal scheme stays the sameWe provide optional port configurations such as: Express Port, Monitor Port, 1310nm passband port and 1550nm port for these multiplexers according to customer choice, When using with 1310nm legacy SDH/SONET, CWDM wavelengths 1270, 1290, 1310, 1330 and 1350nm should not be used.When using with 1550nm legacy SDN/SONET, CWDM wavelengths 1510, 1530, 1550, 1570 and 1590nm should not be used.
