Purpose:
To describe Fiberdyne's new rack-mount module, which separates and outputs a sample of each CWDM (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) signal, on a link. The sample is a small percentage of the original signal. The output is filtered, providing only the selected CWDM channel. The result is a monitoring capability, which does not interfere with the link.
Conceptual Usage:
Add the Monitor Module to existing, multiplexed link. A small sample, of each signal, is "leaked" to the outputs. Connect measurement/monitoring equipment, such as power meters or network analyzers, to the module outputs. When finished monitoring, disconnect the instruments. The network is left undisturbed.

Output low-power samples of each multiplexed signal from the link.
(Uninstrusive monitoring of each and every signal.)
Note: Fiberdyne Monitor Modules can be used with all ITU-compliant, mux/demux modules, including Fiberdynes mux/demux modules.
Features:
- Center wavelengths and spacing comply with ITU-T G.694.2
- Integrated fiber-optic splitter and CWDM demultiplexer
- Ports clearly labeled with CWDM wavelength
- 1U module with reversible brackets, for 19-inch and 23-inch rack frames
Standard Configurations:
- One standard configuration:
- 8-wavelength module
- 1470-1610 nm, 20-nm spacing
- Standard CWDM wavelengths, according to the ITU-T G.694.2
- Rack-mount module, 1U high, 19/23-inch rack frames (reversible brackets)
Options:
- Alternate channel configurations are possible
Note: Insertion losses may very slightly among channels.
- Standard fiber-optic connectors: FC, LC, SC, ST (UPC or APC)
- Pigtail modules also available
- Tap percentage: 10%, 5%, and 1%

| Digit # | Description | Options** |
| 6th | Wavelength Spacing | 1 = 20 nm |
| 7th & 8th | Number of wavelengths | 08 = 8-channel, (standard 1470-1610 nm) (Note: for other configurations, enter channel count, then list CWDM Channels in "Special Instructions.") |

Note: **add "Special Instructions," for custom configurations. Use "X in the part number; then list details of unique configuration. For example: if the 7th and 8th digits are "04", then list the following.
"Special Instructions: (7th/8th digit): 4-wavelengths - 1550-1610 nm." ***Pigtailed jacket-types are 3-mm for FC/SC/ST and 2-mm for LC. |
