Purpose:
To describe Fiberdyne's new rack-mount module, which separates and outputs a sample of each DWDM (Dense 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 DWDM channel. The result is a monitoring capability, which does not interfere with the link.
Conceptual Usage:
The Monitor Module is added to an existing multiplexed link. A set percentage, of each signal, is "leaked" to the outputs. Then, connect measurement or monitoring equipment, such as power meters or network analyzers, to the module outputs. When monitoring is complete, disconnect the instruments. The network is left undisturbed.

Output low-power samples of each multiplexed signal on 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:
- Channel numbers and wavelength spacing comply with ITU-T G.694.1
- Integrated fiber optic splitter and DWDM demultiplexer
- Ports clearly labeled with Channel number and with wavelength
- 1U module with reversible brackets, for 19-inch and 23-inch rack frames
Standard Configurations:
- Two standard configurations: (100-GHz/0.8-nm spacing)
- 32-channel module (ITU channels 21-52) with SC connectors
- 40-channel module (ITU channels 20-59) with LC connectors
- Standard DWDM channels, according to the ITU Grid (ITU-T G.694.1)
- 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%
