WaveSplitter Announces Custom Optical Module Challenge at NFOEC
2001
Demonstration of Rapid Module Prototype Capabilities from Concept
to Delivery
FREMONT, CA - July 2, 2001 - At the NFOEC show, WaveSplitter
Technologies, Inc., a worldwide supplier of fiber-optic components
and modules for advanced optical networks, will demonstrate its
rapid response design capabilities with the Custom Optical Module
Challenge. As a part of this challenge, companies can submit their
design requirements for custom optical modules at WaveSplitter's
booth #2803 up until 6:00 p.m. on Monday, July 9th. WaveSplitter
will then select one design to deliver a fully assembled prototype
by the end of the show on Wednesday, July 11th.
The challenge will demonstrate WaveSplitter's full breadth of design
capabilities from concept to delivery including simulation, modeling,
packaging, and fiber ribbonization, and will result in a fully assembled
prototype showing form, fit and function by the end of the show.
The only information that companies need to provide with their submission
is optical circuit functionality and mechanical constraints including
package dimensions, input/output fiber locations, fiber ribbonization
and connectorization requirements. For additional questions on the
design requirements, please e-mail WaveSplitter at modulechallenge@wavesplitter.com.
"WaveSplitter understands that cost and size reductions through
integration are a critical challenge for system integrators,"
said Bill Diamond, President and CEO of WaveSplitter. "We have
developed advanced design capabilities and invested in proprietary
design equipment to be able to provide our customers with rapid
seamless integrated module and subsystem solutions enabling them
faster time-to-revenue."
WaveSplitter's module capabilities include complex fiber routing
and management solutions; dense packaging; and rapid design and
prototyping utilizing WaveSplitter's fused fiber, planar lightguide
circuit, and micro-optic product platforms. The company employs
state-of-the-art manufacturing automation including a stereo lithography
prototyping capability to enable rapid physical design iterations
directly from CAD drawings. WaveSplitter can provide a range of
modules from compact packages of fused fiber components to very
dense DWDM solutions integrating WaveSplitter's WaveProcessor™
Interleaver and WaveArray™ high-channel count arrayed waveguide
gratings.
