The DCM Lite (TM) is a fixed chromatic dispersion unit for high-speed DWDM networks.  They are designed to offer a high compensation level while maintaining very low insertion loss in a 1-RMU shelf.

The DCM Lite presents itself to be an attractive alternative to the highly expensive dispersion compensation fiber (DCF) where budgetary constraint is a factor.

 
Features
  • Compensation up to 200 km
  • Insertion loss < 3.5 dB
  • Full C- or L-Band coverage
  • Slope-matched to G.652 or G.655 fiber
  • Cascadable
  • Environmentally friendly product, completely passive, no power and no cooling required for operation!
  • 1 or 2 DCM units per 1-RMU Shelf

Applications
  • Metro or long haul DWDM Networks
  • In-line compensation
  • Post and Pre compensation
  • 40 Gb/s ready networks
  • Fiber emulation for T&M
Compatibility
  • Fully compatible with all ITU-T G.694.2 optics
  • Compatible with lightwave equipment including, Cisco, Nortel, Alcatel, Ciena, Fujitsu, etc.
  • specify required wavelengths on order
Housing
  • 1-RMU (1.75") Aluminum Shelf
