Description
Conversion of local services to
CWDM wavelengths
Fully transparent, bi-directional
coupling
Optimal exploitation of optical chanals
with Gigabit Ethernet
Data rates from 100 Mbps
up to 2.7 Gbps
1:1 or 1:n connections
The 4 Channel Optical Crossbar Transponder Module supports any transport
protocol from 50 Mbps up to 2.7 Gbps on any of its ports. It can be used as a
WDM transponder or as a regenerator. The double transponder has got installed
four modular SFP modules instead of fixed optical transceivers. The
use of pluggable optical transceivers (SFPs) offers the highest flexibility for
the implementation of different transmission distances. By using SFPs with
digital diagnostics interface it is possible to monitor the status information of
the SFP via the chassis management. It is possible to read information such as
wavelength, optical transmit and receive power etc.
The 3 port Gigabit Transponder Module can be used effectively in optical multiplexing
(xWDM) applications for economical conversion of Gigabit Ethernet Twisted
Pair ports to coloured optical channels (CWDM or DWDM). High bandwidth
of Gigabit Ethernet combined with high density of the Transponder Module ports
offers significant advantages and lowers significantly active equipment costs.
The Gigabit connections are configured automatically with the Auto Negotiation
protocol with transparent forwarding.
Metropolitan networks
With the Gigabit Ethernet TDM Module it is possible to double the capacity of
fiber channels. With the time division multiplex (TDM) technology two optical
Gigabit Ethernet data streams (2x 1.25 Gbps 1000Base-X) are combined to one
optical channel (1x 2.5 Gbps). This aggregation is completely transparent for
each Gigabit Ethernet channel. Switching features such as VLANs, stacked
VLANs, flow control, buffer management etc. are not affected. The Gigabit
Ethernet TDM is equipped with SFP slots for modularity of the optical interface.
For xWDM applications the line interface can be equipped with a coloured SFP
transceiver.
