Reflective WDM High Isolation 1310/1550 nm Filter
![]()
GracyFiber Reflective WDM (High Isolation) is a compact bidirectional wavelength filter designed to separate 1310 nm and 1550 nm optical signals within a single-fiber system. Two wavelength-routing configurations are available: 1310 nm Pass / 1550 nm Reflect and 1550 nm Pass / 1310 nm Reflect.
The device operates across 1260–1620 nm and provides transmission isolation of ≥50 dB, together with low insertion loss, low PDL, and a compact Φ3.0 × 15 mm package.
Its miniature passive design is intended for space-constrained optical assemblies including GPON, XG-PON, XGS-PON transceivers, BiDi modules, BOSA assemblies, OLT/ONU equipment, and optical monitoring systems.
The supplied documentation specifically identifies low insertion loss, high isolation, low PDL, compact design, and 1260–1620 nm operating coverage as product characteristics.
These applications are explicitly listed in the supplied product documentation.
A Reflective WDM is a wavelength-selective passive optical component that transmits one wavelength band while reflecting another wavelength band into a different optical path.
This GracyFiber model is designed for 1310 nm / 1550 nm wavelength separation in single-fiber optical systems.
Two configurations are listed:
Configuration A
Configuration B

The GracyFiber Reflective WDM (High Isolation) is designed for optical systems in which 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelength regions need to coexist over a common single fiber while being separated at the optical module or subsystem level.
Its wavelength-selective structure provides two routing options. In one configuration, the 1260–1337 nm band passes through the device while the 1503–1577 nm band is reflected. The inverse version passes the 1550 nm region while reflecting the 1310 nm region.
The device provides maximum insertion loss of 1.1 dB on the pass path and 0.7 dB on the reflection path. Transmission isolation is specified at ≥50 dB, helping suppress the unwanted wavelength band at the transmission port, while reflection isolation is specified at ≥15 dB.
A key feature is its compact Φ3.0 × 15 mm mechanical format. This makes the component relevant to small optical assemblies where conventional module-format WDM devices may occupy too much space.
The supplied configuration also includes LC/UPC receptacle and ferrule interfaces, short fiber routing, and operating temperatures from -20°C to +70°C.
Because the component is passive, it can perform wavelength routing without active switching or electrical power. The supplied documentation positions it particularly for PON transceivers, BiDi modules, BOSA optical assemblies, OLT/ONU equipment, and monitoring systems.
In GPON, XG-PON, or XGS-PON optical modules, different wavelength regions may share a single external fiber interface.
The Reflective WDM provides wavelength-selective routing between the 1310 nm and 1550 nm regions inside the optical assembly. Its compact package is particularly relevant where internal module space is limited.
The supplied documentation explicitly identifies GPON / XG-PON / XGS-PON optical transceivers as target applications.
In a BOSA architecture, transmit and receive optical paths may need to be separated while using a common external fiber interface.
The Reflective WDM can provide this wavelength-routing function through its pass and reflection paths. BOSA optical subassemblies are explicitly included in the supplied application list.
In access-network equipment, 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelength regions may need to be separated or combined within a compact optical interface.
The device provides passive wavelength separation and is explicitly listed for both OLT and ONU applications.
