3CN00464AAAA

3CN00464AAAA is a kind of Alcatel 1912 AWG (Arrayed Waveguide Grating), which is designed for DWDM systems and belongs to a family of high performance optical routing devices. The component eliminate the cost associated with installing additional fibers, offering an alternative to expensive upgrades. The AWG chip consists of a number of arrayed channel waveguides functioning as diffraction gratings based on SiO2/Si planar technology. The AWG structure provides much narrower wavelength channel spacing in ITU channel allocation, high manufacturability and stability, long-term reliability, much smaller insertion loss, low cross-talk and low per-channel cost compared to other technologies. 3CN00464AAAA is typically used in DWDM transmission, DWDM based add/drop multiplexing, Wavelength-selective routing and Optical signal processing applications.

The Features of 3CN00464AAAA can be summarized as: (1)Narrow and accurate channel spacing; (2)Low, uniform insertion loss; (3)Low cross-talk; (4)Polarization insensitivity; (5)High stability and reliability; (6)Temperature stabilization heater.

The Specifications of 3CN00464AAAA can be summarized as: (1)Number of channel: 16; (2)Channel spacing (f): 100 GHz; (3)Band profile: Flat top; (4)Center Wavelengths (CW): ITU grid nm; (5)Center Wavelength accuracy (CW): ±5 GHz; (6)Free Spectral Range (FSR): 2010 GHz; (7)Min -1dB bandwidth (1dB): 0.24 nm; (8)Min -3dB bandwidth (3dB): 0.48 nm; (9)Max Insertion Loss (IL): 7 dB @ ITU wavelengths; (10)Max Insertion Loss uniformity (IL): 1.5 dB @ ITU wavelengths; (11)Max Polarization sensitivity: 0.03 nm.

The Absolute maximum ratings of 3CN00464AAAA can be summarized as: (1)Operating case temperature: -5 to +70 °C; (2)Storage temperature: -40 to +85 °C.
