VCL-Gigabit Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer

Product Overview

Orion Telecom Networks Inc. offers VCL-Gigabit Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer is a unique Gigabit multi-service optical fiber transport solution which transmits both Gigabit Ethernet (Gigabit Wire-Speed) data along with upto 16 E1 (TDM) channels over an optical fiber link.

This product provides up to 4 x Gigabit interfaces with rate-limiting option on each port (with user selectable bandwidth allocation on each Gigabit port).

1+1 optical fiber redundancy is also available for minimizing the possibility of transmission loss due to an optical link failure.

The Gigabit (Wire-Speed) Ethernet traffic along with 16 E1's are multiplexed into 1.25Gbps optical link to provide a compact, high performance, high throughput and cost effective broadband network access solution.

Applications

Application: Data Rate limiting feature

VCL-Gigabit Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer supports Rate Limiting feature. A user can divide 1000Mbps (total) bandwidth into four Gigabit Ethernet ports according to their requirement. A user can configure Gigabit Ethernet Rate Limit from 2Mbps to 1000Mbps for any of the Gigabit Ethernet ports through user configurable commands.

Application: Point-to-Dual Point

Application: Ring Network

Application: Chain Network
