An acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) utilizing phased array transducers for use as dynamically reconfigurable wavelength division multiplexer. The new type of AOTF has the unique capability of simultaneous and independent selection of multi-wavelength signals and separation into multiple output ports. Preferred embodiments of the AOTF are described that provide increased resolution, narrow channel spacing, lower drive power and reduced coherent crosswalk.
