DWDM Applications
Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM)
High-Capacity Optical Networking for Today—and Tomorrow
Our DWDM passive solutions are purpose-built for networks needing massive bandwidth upgrades over long distances. With support for up to 96 wavelengths, Pivotal Optics DWDM gear transforms a single pair of fibers into 40+ virtual fiber links—without active transport systems.
DWDM Benefits
- Supports high-density traffic across metro, regional, and long-haul links
- Use passive filters to optimize existing network gear
- Enables 40+ wavelengths with amplifiers and dispersion compensation
- Cut CapEx and OpEx vs. active DWDM systems
CWDM Applications
Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM)
Cost-Effective Capacity for Short to Mid-Range Fiber Links
Our CWDM passive filters are ideal for expanding fiber capacity in access, metro, and campus environments. With up to 9 wavelengths on a single fiber pair, CWDM provides an easy entry point for boosting capacity while keeping deployment fast and affordable.
CWDM Benefits
- Perfect for shorter-distance, lower-cost deployments
- Supports 1G and 10G traffic
- Adds capacity without laying new fiber
- Modular, scalable, and easy to manage
