iConverter Single-Fiber Course Wave Division Multiplexing (CWDM) modules provide a flexible and cost effective solution for increasing fiber capacity over single fiber networks. CWDM over single-fiber increases network bandwidth capacity by enabling multiple wavelengths, or data channels that carry independent services over existing fiber infrastructure. Up to sixteen separate wavelengths can be transported on a single-fiber link with iConverter Single-Fiber CWDM modules.
Applications
Two Networks on a Single-Fiber Protected Ring
Single-Fiber CWDM/X Multiplexer/Demultiplexer Modules
Single-Fiber iConverter CWDM/X modules are available in 2 and 4-Channel models, supporting a variety of wavelength combinations and port configurations.
The figure above shows a pair of 2-Channel, single-fiber CWDM/X units that operate using the 1550nm, 1570nm, 1590nm and 1610nm wavelengths. Note that each wavelength is unidirectional and only flows in one direction. The channel ports of iConverter CWDM/X model 8872 receive 1570nm and 1610nm, while the channel ports of model 8873 receive 1550nm and 1590nm.
Single-Fiber CWDM/AD Add & Drop Multiplexers
iConverter 1-Channel Single-Fiber CWDM/AD modules are Course Wave Division Multiplexing (CWDM) Optical Add and Drop Multiplexers (OADM). The CWDM/AD modules add (multiplex) and drop (de-multiplex) one channel on both directions of a CWDM single-fiber route. Nine standard models of the 1-Channel Single-Fiber CWDM/AD modules are available.
iConverter CWDM/AD modules add new access points anywhere on a single-fiber CWDM network, without impacting the remaining channels traversing the network. Access points can be added to linear, bus, and ring networks, where the dual-direction ring design provides redundant protected architecture.

The small and compact size of the iConverter CWDM/X and CWDM/AD modules yields one of the highest port densities in the industry. A 2U high 19-module iConverter chassis populated with modules can yield up to 120 wavelengths of capacity. iConverter CWDM/X modules are passive devices that require no external power. They can also be installed in an iConverter powered chassis with a management module 1 and be managed using Omnitron’s NetOutlook® network management software, third-party SNMP software, Telnet or a serial console port. |
The modules can be installed in any iConverter chassis equipped with other iConverter media converters and transponders to provide a multi-service platform capable of delivering Ethernet, TDM, SONET and other services across a CWDM fiber common link.
1 For complete management support, use a M2 series module (NMM2, GX/TM2, 2GXM2, 10/100M2, 2FXM2) or higher.
