Increase the capacity of your optical network without adding more fiber runs. The BlueOptics BOCR8 is a 1HE 8-Channel CWDM Multiplexer designed to combine multiple optical channels over single-mode fiber. It supports wavelengths from 1270nm to 1450nm, excluding 1390nm and 1410nm, with 20nm channel spacing. With LC/APC connectors on both input and output, this CWDM multiplexer provides a practical solution for compatible optical network installations where efficient wavelength management is important
BlueOptics BOCR8 1HE 8-Channel CWDM Multiplexer
Managing multiple optical services can become challenging when available fiber capacity is limited. The BlueOptics BOCR8 helps solve this problem by allowing 8 CWDM channels to operate within a single optical fiber infrastructure. Its 20nm channel spacing provides organized wavelength separation, while the ±6.5nm channel passband supports the specified CWDM wavelength range. The single-mode design is suitable for compatible optical transmission systems, and LC/APC connectors provide the required interface for supported network equipment. Its 1HE form factor also makes it suitable for rack-based optical network installations where organized equipment placement matters.
Solution for Fiber to the X (FTTX)
BlueOptics passive 8 Channel Multiplexer/Demultiplexer as 19" chassis rack version for increasing the transmission capacity of optical data signals from 1270-1450nm in optical fiber connections by combining different wavelengths on one fiber. This allows different services to be combined on one connection. BlueOptics passive 8 Channel Multiplexers/Demultiplexers can be operated without power supply and are designed for maximum ranges on single-mode optical fibers.
Full Utilization of Your Fiber
BlueOptics passive Multiplexers bundle several optical signals and thus enable their transmission via one fiber (multiplexing). On the opposite side, these signals are unbundled again with a Demultiplexer in order to divide the signals again into several fibers (demulitplexing). This is done under consideration of the CWDM grid according to ITU G.694.2.
Best Attenuation Values
BlueOptics 8 Channel Multiplexers have best attenuation values because of a low input attenuation (Input Loss) and a high return loss (Return Loss). 8 Channel Multiplexers are primarily used in Fiber to the Home (FTTH) Networks, Fiber to the Point (FTTX) Networks, Passive Optical Networks (PON), Gigabit Passive Optical Networks (GPON), Local Area Networks (LAN) and Cable Television (CATV) installations or just for easy optical signal distribution.
Highest Component Quality
For lossless transmission services exclusively branded fibers from well known manufacturers such as Corning, Fujikura or YOFC are used in the production process of BlueOptics 8 Channel Multiplexer Solutions. All installed plugs are manufactured with highly reliable zirconia ceramic ferrule of brand manufacturers such as Amphenol, Diamond, Nissin Kasei or Reichle & De-Massari and achieve a lifetime of up to 1500 mating cycles.
Interference-free Transmission
All BlueOptics 8 Channel Multiplexer Solutions are tested after production with interferometer and Optical-Time-Domain-Reflectometry (OTDR) to ensure the best quality. A measurement protocol of the input loss and return loss values is included with every shipped 8 Channel Multiplexer Rack Version.
BlueOptics 8 Channel Multiplexer solutions meet Telcordia GR-326 requirements-Core 4.4.
Industrial Standards
BlueOptics 8 Channel Multiplexers are manufactured to meet generally accepted industry standards and norms. All used cables are equipped with a flame-retardant LSZH jacket. In case of a fire thus creates a very low smoke emission in comparison to PVC coated cables. Furthermore no halogen is released.
BlueOptics 8 Channel Multiplexers meet the following Norms: IEC-61034, IEC-754-1, IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, IEC/EN 60950 and RoHS.
