Unit Enabling Delivery of
Transparent LAN Services
while Providing Carrier-
Grade Management and Line
Provisioning Capabilities.
Service providers who provide customers with
Transparent LAN services must be able to remotely
manage their customer premises equipment while
keeping management and customer data traffic
completely separated. Designed to meet the needs
of service providers and administrators of enterprise
campus networks, FiberLinX provisions point-to-
point fiber optic connections and provides a unique
management tool to monitor the entire link between
two locations.

of service providers and administrators of enterprise
campus networks, FiberLinX provisions point-to-
point fiber optic connections and provides a unique
management tool to monitor the entire link between
two locations.
The FiberLinX solution connects a host/remote network
over fiber optics and allows administrators to observe
both the end-points, and the fiber link between them,
as single management entities and not as separate
elements. Host management traffic is not visible
to the remote or customer network nor is access to
the customer network required, guaranteeing end-
to-end data integrity. FiberLinX allows for remote
configuration and alerts administrators to any potential
problems on the long-haul fiber run, provides vital
information on link condition and reports data traffic
statistics. In addition, it reduces the total cost of
network equipment by functioning as a copper-
to-fiber media converter, allowing deployment of
lower cost copper switches at both ends of the fiber
connection.

Application Example
-
Dual FiberLinX Solution
When used in pairs, a FiberLinX configured as a Host resides at the head-end while another FiberLinX, configured
as a Remote, installs at the remote customer location, typically on the network edge where the customer
network meets the service provider infrastructure. Via SNMP, the FiberLinX solution monitors the entire link
and ensures data integrity while remaining isolated and completely transparent to the customer LAN.
