Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexers (CWDM) by Canary Communications, combine multiple data channels into multi-wavelength data streams and launches them in parallel, over a single standard SMF-28 type, single-mode fiber trunk cable.

With CWDM connections, multiple network users, subnets or VPNs can access single-mode links that were formerly limited to single Server and Switch backbone connections.

Canary’s Optical add/drop multiplexers (OADMs), provide for selected wavelengths to exit and be re-inserted into a multi-wavelength data stream, allowing intermediate locations access to a common, point-to-point fiber trunk or ring, linking major installations.

Canary’s standalone, active copper-to-fiber GFT and fiber-to-fiber GFC, media converters, deliver a full range of CWDM wavelengths for gigabit Ethernet connections.

Deployed remotely, standalone CWDM converters can be used with Canary or other brands of Optical add/drop multiplexers. Modular converters are available for Canary’s manageable CCN-2000/CCN-0400 and unmanaged CCM-1600 chassis families.

Fast Ethernet and other protocols are available as special requests.

Canary Communications is an industry leader in providing advanced connectivity solutions for the evolving network.
