1310/1550 nm Gigabit and CWDM Gigabit FiberLinX-II modules are field-proven
in Optical Ethernet, FTTx, and campus area network applications worldwide.
Service providers who offer customers Transparent LAN services must be able to remotely manage
customer premises equipment (CPE) while keeping management traffic and customer data traffic
completely separated. Designed to meet the needs of these service providers and of administrators
of enterprise campus networks, Prisma FiberLinX modules provision point-to-point fiber optic
connections and provide a management tool for monitoring the entire link between two locations.
The Prisma FiberLinX modules connect two remote networks over fiber and allow administrators to
observe both endpoints and the fiber link between them not as separate elements, but as a single
management entity. Host management traffic is not visible to the remote or customer network.
Access to the customer network is not required, allowing end-to-end data integrity.
Prisma FiberLinX modules allow for remote configuration, and alert administrators to any potential
problems on the long-haul fiber run. These modules also provide vital information on link condition
and report data traffic statistics. Additionally, these modules help reduce the total cost of network
equipment by functioning as a copper-to-fiber media converter, allowing the use of lower-cost
copper switches at both ends of the fiber connection.
