Abstract
A fiber optic assembly is provided including a body defining a fiber routing volume, a plurality of fiber optic components disposed in a front side of the body, and a plurality of optical filters disposed within the volume. The plurality of optical filters enable at least twenty four (24) dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) channels.
Claims9
A fiber optic apparatus, comprising:
- a chassis;
- wherein the chassis is configured to support a fiber optic connection density of at least one hundred ninety-two (192) wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) channels per U space, based on using at least one duplex fiber optic component;
- a plurality of fiber optic equipment trays supported by the chassis;
- and
- a plurality of fiber optic assemblies configured to be installed in the plurality of fiber optic equipment trays, wherein each fiber optic assembly of the plurality of fiber optic assemblies comprises a front side configured to support the at least one duplex fiber optic component, a fiber routing volume, and a plurality of optical fibers disposed within the fiber routing volume and arranged to establish optical connections between an input fiber optic component and at least one output fiber optic component.
