AS2-S11-S-GE-5 Media Converter Here is a question that we often receive from prospective new Customers of the Micro-OTDR: “I want to have the benefit of the Micro-OTDR feature in my network, but cannot afford to replace all of my Switch/Router equipment. How can I add the Micro-OTDR to an installed base of network equipment, which

Eliminate Reflection Problems Which Plague Legacy SFSW SFPs Single Fiber Single Wavelength (SFSW) Transceivers transmit and receive at the same wavelength, on single fiber, doubling the optical fiber plant capacity. SFSW transceivers offer many potential benefits to the Network Operator – e.g. seamless CWDM integration, half the fiber, half the CWDM passives and easier fiber

There are many aspects of a fiber optic communication system that need to be configured correctly for the system to work properly. Many times customers believe there is a problem with the equipment and that it needs repair when in actuality it is operator error. The most common issue with fiber optic links is a

Mercedes Benz stadium wasn’t only the venue for the LIII Superbowl it was also a critical point for the world of Telecommunications. More than a million fans were expected to arrive in Atlanta for the Superbowl event, and the preparation for that event cost in the tens of millions for the Network providers. The need
The challenge for VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) where the antenna (Dish) and the command center are not collocated has always been the limited reach of the RF cabling. Using a RF over Fiber link, the distance between the antenna and the operation center can be extended from a few meters to few kilometers without any signal degradation. The VSAT location / Operating Center often requires building modifications, but using a fiber based VSAT system offers the following benefits: The
