OpsiTech launches competitive Mux/Demux and interleaver

GRENOBLE, France -  OpsiTech SA, a supplier of high-performance integrated optical components and modules for optical networking systems, today announced the launch of its competitive Multiplexer/DeMultiplexer and interleaver families. These first product lines based on an advanced silica-on-silicon AWG technology offer the largest range of dense channel spacing passive optical components ideal for flexible, scalable and cost-effective DWDM optical transmissions.

The Mux/DeMux series include high-channel-count 200GHz, 100GHz and 50GHz Mux/Demux with low insertion loss, low crosstalk and superior PMD et PDL performances. The components are available in channel count from 8 to 40.

In addition, the highest range of channel outputs (2, 4 and 8) 25GHz, 50GHz and 100GHz interleaver series feature highly competitive performances at 10Gbit/s. An unsurpassed new  25GHz-100GHz interleaver efficiently demultiplexes (or demultiplexes) 25GHz spaced channels into four sets of 100GHz spaced channels.

"OpsiTech's components and modules are designed to meet the stringent performance and low-cost requirements of todays metro and long haul optical networking companies", said Patrick Mottier, President and COO of OpsiTech SA. "by combining the 25GHz-100GHz interleaver and four 40-channels Mux/Demux OpsiTech enables economical high-data-rate OC-192 transmissions".
