OPC-1500 - Optical Path Converter (fiber saver) for 1550nm wavelengths converts a duplex circuit to a single fiber circuit, passive and speed independent device

Product description
OPC-1500 device is a passive unit that works without any external power. Without changing any existing optical network deployment, the OPC-1500 can convert the wavelength of a dual-fiber bidirectional light transmission (2 strand) to single-fiber bidirectional transmission light(1 strand), and it can use the same wavelength for bidirectional transmission over the single fiber. Using the OPC-1500 the fiber capacity can be doubled without any additional physical fiber requirements.

Features

The OPC-1500 device supports any optical wavelength in the 1503nm ~ 1618nm range and has LC/UPC connectors. Below are examples of applications that can be achieved using one or another of the OPC series Optical Path Converters:
