iConverter CWDM/AD
1 Channel Single-Fiber Add/Drop Multiplexer
USER MANUAL
Product Overview
iConverter 1-Channel Single-Fiber CWDM/AD modules are Course Wave Division
Multiplexing (CWDM) Optical Add and Drop Multiplexers (OADM). The CWDM/AD
modules add (multiplex) and drop (de-multiplex) one channel on one or both
directions of a CWDM single-ber common link. Nine standard models of the
1-Channel Single-Fiber CWDM/AD modules are available.
The Single-Fiber CWDM/AD modules support dual ber Channel Ports and single-
ber Common Port connections. Each ber strand on the Channel Port supports a
different wavelength, one wavelength for transmit (Tx) and a different wavelength
for receive (Rx).

Channel Port (Left and Right)
The Channel Ports transmit and receive signals using two specific CWDM
wavelengths. The Channel Ports are multiplexed on and demultiplexed from the
Common Port. As shown in Figure 2, each Channel Port on the CWDM/AD module
has a Left and Right port. Each Channel Port supports a different transmit and
receive wavelength based on the CWDM/AD model. Data transmitted and received
by Channel Port Left is aggregated on Common Port Left and data transmitted and
received by Channel Port Right is aggregated on Common Port Right.
When connecting external dual ber transceivers to the Channel Port, select an
optical transceiver that matches the receive wavelength of the specic Channel
Port. Since the Channel Port uses two different wavelengths over dual ber, the
receiver of the external dual ber transceiver must have the capability to detect
