What is Fixed Optical Drop Multiplexer?
Early FOADMs, with preassigned channels at static nodes, were typically built with thin-film filters (TFFs), and allowed adding and dropping of individual or multiple wavelength channels from a dense wavelength division multiplexer/demultiplexer (DWDM) multichannel stream. Some models currently available are configurable (COADMs) in that the manufacturer can factory-customize the number of channels, filter specifications, and power equalization.
For dense channel plans with 50GHz channel spacing, the FOADM typically includes an optical frequency interleaver. FOADMs or COADMs that feature power equalization include set-screw-adjustable variable optical attenuators. Most configurations boast low loss and are temperature-insensitive.
FOADM to filter as the main component and its function is fixed to join or retrieve certain light wavelengths. General common FOADM can be divided into three types, namely Thin Film Filter type (TFF type), Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG type) and integrated planar Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWG type).
- TFF FOADM using thin film between the filtering effects of the different refractive index.
- FBG FOADM use of fiber Bragg grating filtering effect, with two circulators can become FOADM.
- AWG FOADM generally used in semiconductor fabrication processes, the integration of different refractive index material is formed on a flat substrate in a planar waveguide, when different wavelength light source is incident through the coupling after the import side, due to take a different path length, while the different phase delay caused by different wavelengths and thus produce certain wavelengths in the export side to form a constructive or destructive interference, making waves in the export side, the different wavelengths will follow the design on a different channel to reach, and thus achieve FOADM function.
