Chapter 1 Introduction
1-1 Functional Description
The CTC Union’s FMUX03 is a fiber optical multiplexer that integrates 4/8/16
channels of E1 signal into a single optical data stream. It extends the transmission
distance up to 80 kilometer. With the optional secondary optical link, FMUX03
provides 1+1 optical line protection. In addition, FMUX03 also provides the
standard SNMP interface for Network Management, using Ethernet and PPP ports to
connect to central office. User can monitor the FMUX03 through built-in In-band
operation channel to reach a remote terminal. Moreover, FMUX03 simplifies testing
and maintenance with order wire, allowing communication between local and remote
maintenance crews. The FMUX03 provides the telecommunication company a
multipurpose and easy to use high quality fiber optics multiplexer.
The use of FMUX03 with the Smart Agent network interface for ease of network
connectivity.
Provides both 10/100 Base-T and PPP interface to connect SNMP Network
Management center interface system.
Optional secondary fiber link offers 1+1 line auto protection to insure network
quality and efficiency.
In-band operation channel provides the ability to configure, test, and monitor
system status and alarm from both local and remote terminal. FMUX03 offers
real-time monitoring of the transmission quality to meet the demands of high
quality communication.
E1 signal control calculates error in Path and Line
The fiber optical interface of E1 communication system complies with the
requirement of ITU-T regulatory standards.
Order wire to assist with remote maintenance, configuration, and testing
Provides the parity error count for optical interface performance monitoring.
Operating from dual AC /DC(selectable) power module (co-exist on FMUX03),
backup power supply is available.
Mountable on either 19-inch or 23-inch rack.
