The OCM 1842 is a compact CWDM passive 4 channel optical multiplexer / demultiplexer designed to send and receive up to 4 individual signals over a single fiber link. This module accommodates 1350nm, 1370nm, 1390nm, 1410nm. The module has an UPG (Upgrade) port to cascade additional 4 channel modules expanding the system to a maximum of 16 channels.
The modules can be used standalone or integrated into the optional RFR 1018 1/2 RU 19” rack frame, which can accommodate all four modules. Ideal for system installations.
