2.4 Applications
SL240 cards can be used in a variety of topologies for a variety of applications. The
following sections detail typical topologies used and some applications. Many other
applications are possible in these configurations.
2.4.1 LinkXchange GLX4000 Physical Layer Switch
The GLX4000 Physical Layer Switch is a managed, non-blocking, multipurpose
crosspoint switch for digital signals. Any input can be switched to any one of the144
outputs. The protocol or structure of the data routed through the GLX4000 switch is
ignored and passes through unaltered. As a result, the GLX4000 can be used with many
different types of networks and signals.
The GLX4000 Physical Layer Switches have the following features:
•
GLX4000 144 supports up to 144 non-blocking serial I/O ports.
•
Multiple port card types available for various media and data rates.
•
RT4000, 48 port 4.25 Gbps Retimed accepts optical and copper media (SFP)
transceiver modules.
•
RT10000, 12 port 10 Gbps accepts optical and copper media Small Form
Factor Pluggable (XFP) modules.
•
FW1600, 48 port IEEE 1394b "Firewire" copper media.
•
ET1000, 48 port auto-negotiation 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps Ethernet with RJ-45
connectors.
•
Contact Curtiss-Wright Controls for a complete list of available port cards.
