Banded Filter
Product Family
solla-Q
The Bookham Technology solla-Q banded product line
is based on thin-film interference filter technology. The
solla-Q family consists of a variety of broad passband
filter products, which enable groups of multiple
adjacent channels to pass through the filter. These
filters form the basic building blocks for dense
wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) optical
systems designed with a banded architecture. The
solla-Q 4s0-50, solla-Q 4s0-100 and solla-Q 7s1-50 are
just a few examples of the products offered providing 4
passband channels at 50G and 100GHz channel spacing
and 7 passband channels at 50GHz channel spacing
respectively within the C and L bands.
