Fiberdyne has integrated Gigabit Ethernet Media Converters with Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). Each Gigabit Multiplexer System includes two stations. Each station includes the conversion electronics, the power modules, and the passive optics, typically housed in a rack-mount, 3U-high chassis. Customer interfaces can include any available 1000Base format. Additionally, these interfaces can be mixed. Multiple full-duplex links, from any format, can be multiplexed onto one fiber pair or onto a single fiber. The multiplexing uses Coarse WDM (CWDM) or Dense WDM (DWDM) techniques.

Conceptual Usage:

Gigabit Mux System Concept

Features:

• Complies with IEEE 802.3z/ab (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Multiplexed-link distance: 40 km (CWDM) or 60 km (DWDM)
• Power Monitor Panel shows status power supply module(s): Main and Aux
• Status LEDs:  Power, Link and Activity
• Connectors:  LC/UPC (fiber) or RJ-45 (1000Base-T)
• Packaging:  3U-high chassis, fits TIA-standard, 19-inch and 23 inch racks

• Rackmount chassis, 3U high
• SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) Ethernet interfaces
• Power Supply Modules are Hot-Swappable and Field Replacable
• Upgrade Ports for future expansion (i.e. add more links to a multiplexed link)

• Dual-fiber or Single-fiber solutions:
• Dual-fiber: multiplex 2 to 8, full-duplex links onto a fiber pair
• Single-fiber: multiplex 2 to 4, full-duplex links onto a single fiber

Note: with DWDM, more links are possible with separate optical module; the powered chassis can host 19 converter rack-cards.

• Customer interfaces: 1000Base-T, -SX, -LX, "-ZX", "-C" , and "-D"

  Note: "-ZX" (1550-nm), "-C" (CWDM) and "-D" (DWDM) are not IEEE 802.3 standards. However, they are common extensions of the standards.

• Mix and match customer interfaces within a chassis
• Redundant Power Supply capable: two slots for power modules.
• 120/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz
• 48VDC
