We present rectangular global envelope Coherent Direct Sequence en/decoders for WDM-OCDMA applications. The device presents balanced insertion loss and sharp edges for optimum DWDM channeling. Experimental results using 5 and 1 100 GHz sub-bands en/decoders demonstrate the applicability of these devices both for broadcasting and point-to-point appli- cations.
