| The following sections list and describe
standalone Media Converters that provide active CWDM wavelength transmission
for linking users with Canary Multiplexer / De-Multiplexers and Optical Add/Drop
Multiplexers. Each CWDM Converter is derived from its respective standard
Media Converter family. Canary’s Coarse Wavelength, active copper-to-fiber and fiber-to-fiber Media Converters deliver the full range of CWDM wavelengths and power for Gigabit and Fast Ethernet connections. Deployed remotely, standalone CWDM converters can be used with Canary Optical Add/Drop Multiplexers or those supplied by other vendors. They are ideal for upgrading slightly older equipment installations for full CWDM access. For example, in a university setting, older installed switches with fiber links can be given the capability for parallel CWDM transmission by deploying Canary CWDM Media Converters and Multiplexers. This would vastly increase the effective bandwidth of the university’s fiber infrastructure, resulting in greater user access and system resilience. Equivalent Converter modules for the CCM-1600 chassis and the manageable CCN-2000 / CCN-0400 chassis mirror the performance of their standalone equivalents. Transmission distances range between 40 to 80 Kilometers, depending on data rates and optical launch power. Other protocols will be available as special requests and technology allows. Canary active CWDM wavelength converters are functionally identical to standard units with the exception that paired units at opposite ends of a fiber link comprising a user channel, must be models with identical CWDM wavelengths in order to maintain their common channel link e.g. if one device is operating on Gigabit Ethernet at 1470 ηm, the second must transmit and receive at the same data rate and wavelength. Similarly, a standalone 1470 ηm unit can be connected to an equivalent CCM-1600 or CCN-2000/CCN-0400 chassis module transmitting on the same wavelength. |
