CWDM/DWDM Integration

The difference between CWDM and DWDM lies in the channel spacing between neighbored wavelengths,  for CWDM 20 nm and for DWDM 0.8/0.4 nm (using 100 GHz/50 GHz grid).
Pan Dacom Direkt utilizes this advantage for an efficient C/DWDM integration. Thereby up to sixteen DWDM channels are transmitted simultaneously in only one CWDM channel (1530 nm and 1550 nm). Thus an easy-to-realize channel extension can be achieved under continued us of existing CWDM components and thereby garantuees a protection of investment.
