  • Page 4: Product Overview

    Rev. 0 1 Product overview The Flashlink DWDM-40C is a set of optical modules for multiplexing and demultiplexing 100GHz spaced DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed) signals. The modules are bidirectional, so they work as both multiplexer and demultiplexer at the same time.

    DWDM-40C Rev. 0 3 Connections 3.1 Connecting to the DWDM-40C Figure 2.11 shows the backplane for the flashlink 40-channel DWDM optical filter frame. Each optical port supports a dedicated wavelength that is marked on the sub-rack frame. The connector is an SC/PC connector. Each port should be connected to the corresponding wavelength for each channel card with an optical patch cord.

    DWDM-40C Rev. 0 4 Operation 4.1 Handling of optical fibers This product includes fiber optic equipment. Access to the optical signal path is given through the optical connectors (see separate chapter). Even though a fiber optic cable can look almost the same as an electrical wire, special care must be taken.
  • Page 9: Connector Cleaning

    DWDM-40C Rev. 0 A laser beam can be harmful to the human eye (depending on laser power and exposure time), therefore: BE CAREFUL WHEN CONNECTING / DISCONNECTING FIBER PIGTAILS (ENDS). NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE END OF THE FIBER. NEVER USE MICROSCOPES, MAGNIFYING GLASSES OR EYE LOUPES TO LOOK INTO A FIBER END.

    DWDM-40C Rev. 0 Figure 1.1: The different parts of an SC/PC connector Cleaning procedure: If the ferrule is dirty it must be cleaned before re-connection. If a clean connector is pressed against a dirty connector, both connectors will become dirty resulting in possible degradation of signal quality.

Please consult with Network Electronics before building a 40-channel system. Example with 6 flashlink frames, frame space utilisation depending on card types:...
