Omnitron Systems Technology Band Splitter - Manual

iConverter CWDM/X Single and Dual Band Splitter
USER MANUAL
Product Overview
The iConverter CWDM/X Band Splitters combine and separate the lower CWDM wavelengths
(1270nm to 1450nm) and the upper CWDM wavelengths (1470nm to 1610nm).
The
iConverter CWDM/X Single Band Splitter provides a single lower and upper band
channel ports. The iConverter CWDM/X Dual Band Splitter provides a left and right lower,
upper and common ports.

Lower and Upper Band Ports
The Lower Band (CH1) transmits and receives signals between 1270nm and 1450nm CWDM
wavelengths. The Upper Band (CH2) transmits and receives signals between 1470nm and
1610nm CWDM wavelengths. The Lower and Upper Band Ports are multiplexed onto and
demultiplexed from the Common Port.
See Figure 2 and 3 for Single Band Splitter configurations. See Figure 4 for Dual Band
Splitter configuration of left and right band ports.
Common Port
The Common Port (COM) transmits and receives the aggregated wavelengths connected
to the Lower and Upper Band Ports (1270nm to 1610nm).
When calculating optical loss, ensure that the total loss, plus a safety factor (typically 3dB) does
not exceed the optical power budget. The optical power budget is the difference between the
transmitter optical output power and the receiver’s optical sensitivity. The transmitter optical
output power and receiver optical sensitivity values can be obtained from the manufacturers
of the respective equipment. Please consult the
iConverter data sheets for CWDM/X signal
loss specifications.
