Optical multiplexers available with wider packaging and assembly options

5 September 2007 Opto-Electronics

Omron has released a new Tap Case package and additional fibre assembly options, extending the mounting options for CWDM (coarse wave division multiplexing) multiplexers in fibre-to-the-node and fibre-to-the-home applications.

Tap Case miniature packaging alternatives are available off-the-shelf and at no extra cost. Overall dimensions of the package (15,1 x 8,8 x 4,7 mm (l x h x w)) are similar to existing ultra small multiplexers, but the new option features two integrally moulded webs with 2,7 mm diameter holes for fixing to panels, trays and other frameworks. It is an ideal mounting solution in roadside cabinets where space is limited and where continuously high levels of shock and vibration are encountered.

In addition, both the standard and Tap Case packages are available with new Y- and V-type fibre assembly variants, as well the standard fibre ribbon. The Y type provides a neat fibre exit where space is limited and high mechanical resistance is not required, whilst V type assembly is suited to simple customer side panel and rack mounting.
