Customized Dispersion Compensation Modules
Customize your DCM
Our DCMs come in three designs
Continuous full band
Do as the majority of the Tier-1 system vendors and get perfectly tailored and future-proof dispersion solutions with low IL, no latency, and no NLE.
Continuous banded
If you have a submarine system or another banded solution, you can also experience all the benefits of our unique continuous products.
Continuous slope
Residual slope compensation for submarine and festoon links that often have extreme dispersion slope values.
Calculate link length, insertion loss and latency
What is your preferred bandwidth?
- Any bandwidth and any frequency range is possible
- Full C-band or L-band equals ~40 nm
Which fiber is used on your link?
- Our solution can be tailored to any fiber type
- As an example G.652 (SMF) has a dispersion coefficient of 16.8 ps/nm/km and G.655 (LEAF) has a dispersion coefficient of 4.2 ps/nm/km
Longer links?
The optical performance of our DCMs make them perfect to cascade.
- A DCM has an IL of 2.5 – 3.8 dB depending on configuration, add as many devices as your link requires
Choose package
Select from FBG packages according to grating length
