RLH Analog Phone & Data

Mux Over Fiber System

16 CHANNEL VOICE WITH DATA
OVER FIBER OPTICS

Introduction

The RLH  16  channel RLH Analog Phone & Data Mux Over Fiber 
System   provides  a  comprehensive   method  of  multiplexing 
analog  phone  (POTS)  channels over  a  single  pair of  multimode 
or single mode fibers in dual fiber models, or a single fiber in bi-
directional  fiber  models.     This  compact  single  rack  unit  (1RU) 
system solves  the problem  of  adding POTS lines when available 
fiber  is   limited,  reduces  equipment  space,  and  lowers   overall 
equipment costs.

The system also includes four  10/100M  Ethernet ports  for LAN 
interconnection, and  two  channels of  RS-232   or   RS-422/485 
data  ports.  2/4-wire E&M/Analog Data/Audio ports  are available 
options.  All  ports  operate  simultaneously  over  the  fiber  optic 
cable,  and  may  be  used  with  leased  lines  to  build  up  private 
networks and private telephone networks.

Key Features
