The Siemens pureform DCF UDCMC20 is a passive dispersion compensation module engineered to counteract chromatic dispersion in optical fiber communication systems. It delivers -342.00 ps/nm of negative dispersion compensation, enabling signal integrity preservation and extended transmission reach in high-bit-rate DWDM networks without regeneration. The module utilizes dispersion compensating fiber (DCF) technology and operates across the C-Band wavelength range (1525 nm to 1565 nm).
