DATA SHEET
CISCO WDM SERIES OF CWDM PASSIVE DEVICES
Cisco Systems
®
introduces its second generation of coarse wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM) passive devices
boasting increased functions and improved performance to extend the reach of CWDM metropolitan networks (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Cisco WDM Series
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Cisco
®
WDM series comprises a set of 11 new CWDM passive modules mechanically compatible with the Cisco CWDM chassis (part number
CWDM-CHASSIS-2=) and a 1300/1550 nm splitter cable. Compared to the previous 1000BASE-CWDM series of passive filters, this new set of
devices sports a greatly reduced insertion loss (up to 50 percent), “power-tap” ports to allow live monitoring and troubleshooting of the CWDM
signals, as well as the mixing of 1300-nm CWDM signals on the same fiber infrastructures.
The Cisco WDM series of passive devices are replacements for all the product numbers of the Cisco 1000BASE-CWDM series except for the
modules listed in Table 1.
