OPLINK’s Micro-Optic Wavelength Division Multiplexer (MWDM) is based on thin-
film filter technology and metal bonding micro optics packaging. It is used to combine
or separate 1310 and 1550nm band signal. This device offers very flat and wide pass-
band, low insertion loss, and high isolation which makes it ideal for Optical Amplifying
Systems and DWDM Network applications. All OPLINK products are epoxy-free in the
optical path. OPLINK MWDM devices are Bellcore GR -1209 qualification tested.
