DCM (Dispersion Compensator Module)
Based on negative dispersion compensation fiber technology, these modules are optimized for the transmission characteristics of LEAF® fiber. PowerForm™ DCM® Modules for LEAF® Fiber efficiently counteract the effects of chromatic dispersion across the C-Band wavelengths by providing optimal dispersion slope
compensation. Standard modules are available with 1545 nm center wavelength, and dispersion values corresponding to typical transmission fiber lengths. Other center wavelength and dispersion values are available upon request. Standard packaging includes stand-alone module and network-ready rack versions.
Features:
Provides Optimized Dispersion Compensation Across the 1525 nm to 1565 nm Pass band on Positive Non-Zero Dispersion-Shifted Fibers such as LEAF®
• Enhances DWDM System Performance by Reducing Accumulated Residual Dispersion
