• Low ripple and superior loss uniformity
• Wide channel bandwidth
• Low polarization dependent loss
• Low chromatic dispersion
• High adjacent channel isolation
• Low power consumption
• Compact size
• Integrated temperature controller (optional)
Applications
• Metro and long haul mux/demux
• OADM network nodes
• Original equipment manufacturer
(OEM) applications
JDSU 50 GHz, Wideband Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWGs) provide a price-
competitive, small-form-factor alternative to standard thin film based dense
wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM).
JDSU AWGs are a product of advanced PLC fabrication capabilities, and are
offered in both mux and demux configurations. The low cost and high performance
make them the ideal solution for Metro and Long Haul DWDM applications.
JDSU AWGs can incorporate micro-controller-based internal temperature
control (ITC) circuitry to allow stable alignment with the ITU grid. The optional
ITC eliminates the need for external temperature control, and does not impact
package dimensions.

Notes: All specifications are guaranteed at the worst-case polarization state and center frequency misalignment, over the entire operating temperature range.
1. The reference passband is centered on the ITU grid.
2. The insertion loss is defined as the ITU grid loss value, taking into account the worst-case polarization state.
3. The channel bandwidth is the total physical bandwidth of the device at specified level below peak transmission
4. Loss uniformity is the peak-to-peak variation of all channel insertion loss values.
5. Adjacent channel crosstalk is defined for a single channel as the worst-case isolation in the two neighboring channels, measured relative to the channel insertion loss.
6. Non-adjacent crosstalk is defined for a single channel as worst-case isolation of all non-adjacent channels, measured relative to the channel insertion loss.
7. Package dimensions are shown for typical devices and may not be applicable for all AWGs. Please contact JDSU for more details.
