Abstract
An integrated connector-wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) device includes a housing defining a housing interior and a connector interface having at least one ferrule, a device input optical fiber extending from the housing to carry an input optical beam, a device output optical fiber extending from the housing to carry an output optical beam, and a plurality of channel filters positioned in the housing interior. A first channel filter is connected to the input optical fiber and a second channel filter is connected to the output optical fiber, wherein each of the plurality of channel filters is configured to separate at least one optical signal from a plurality of optical signals of the input optical beam and provide the at least one optical signal to the at least one ferrule. A fiber optic module or submodule having one or more integrated connector-WDM devices is also disclosed.
