Arrayed Waveguide Grating, 100 GHz, Wideband (Flat Top)

JDSU 100 GHz,Wideband Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWGs) provide a price competitive, small-form-factor alternative to standard thin film based dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM).

JDSU AWGs are a product of advanced PLC fabrication capabilities, and are offered in both mux and demux configurations. The low cost and high performance make them the ideal solution for Metro and Long Haul DWDM applications.

JDSU AWGs can incorporate micro-controller-based internal temperature control (ITC) circuitry to allow stable alignment with the ITU grid. The optional ITC eliminates the need for external temperature control, and does not impact package dimensions.
