Fibre Optic Conversion |
|||
The company offers connectivity, access and wavelength multiplexing solutions for copper-to-fibre, multimode-to-singlemode fibre, distance extension up to 100km, rate adaptation, and line protection and restoration for Ethernet, as well as optical solutions for SONET and TDM networks. Metrobility's products enable high degrees of flexibility, scalability and manageability when increased speed and distance extensions requires fibre optics. [..Top..]
MANAGED ETHERNET IN THE
FIRST MILE interface device (NID) to support the emerging standards for operations, administration and maintenance (OAM) as defined by IEEE802.3ah Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) Task Force. As a carrier-class device, the Gig-E Service Line Card is specifically designed to maintain the maximum isolation between the public and private network while supporting the OAM requirements defined by both the IEEE and Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF). Contact us for more details and ordering information for this product. [..Top..]
INTUITIVE
SNMP-BASED MANAGEMENT
Features Innovate GUI simulates appearance and workings of each Metrobility chassis and its line cards. Extensive real-time and historical graphing of MIB II and Metrobility-specific MIB extensions. Also supports customizable alarm thresholds and notification procedures to enable early problem identification, fast fault isolation and proactive problem management. Open architecture allows integration with industry standard SNMP-based enterprise management systems. E-mail notification of all traps. WebBeacon, embedded in the management card, adds embedded web functionality to allow network managers to administer fibre connections from Internet browser applications such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer.

LINE
PROTECTION AND RESTORATION
Intelligent "redundant twister" models also deliver Managed Network-on-Demand capability for mission critical applications. Managed Network-on-Demand allows the "redundant twister" media converter to be configured to operate in either Dynamic Recover Mode (DRM) to ensure session integrity and increase uptime, or in Network Select Mode (NSM) to redirect traffic and add security through link isolation. And with SONAR or Switch on No Activity Received, the interface not only monitors for loss of link on the active port, but will also monitor for traffic. With SONAR, if the active port remains idle for a given amount of time (configurable for 1-31 seconds) the resilient technology of the redundant interface will verify activity on the secondary port, and switch traffic to that port once traffic is detected. This prevents a switch or switch port failure from bringing down the network or any part of it. Contact us for more details and ordering information for these products. [..Top..]
CWDM The CWDM network provides a cost-effective “no new fibre upgrade” solution for adding a new GbE service backhaul for the new broadband services.
Metrobility’s CWDM solutions allow users to increase the capacity of existing fibre by utilizing widely spaced, separate wavelengths based on the ITU G.694.2 standard (between 1310nm and 1610nm) within the same fibre pair. These CWDM solutions can support up to sixteen (16) different channels, each carrying up to 1Gbps of bandwidth, and is accomplished through the expansion port on the 4-channel multiplexer. The expansion port allows additional unique wavelengths to be combined on a single fibre pair by 'chaining' multiplexers prior to the final network connection. ‘Drop & Add’ and ‘Drop & Pass’ OADM modules provide the ability to terminate (“Drop”) one or more of the wavelengths from the fibre locally and allows the other wavelengths to continue (“Pass”) to other nodes. Similarly, the “Drop and Add” ability allows a wavelength to be added (“Add”) from a local fibre interface and allows the other wavelengths to continue (“Pass”) to other nodes. Metrobility's managed CWDM solution utilizes a Metrobility line card with wavelength-specific SFP pluggable optics configured in an R5000 chassis with a management card. The line card provides an inline electrical conversion mechanism for monitoring the optical power of the link against problems such as poor connections, wavelength degradation, and even physical breaks. Line card options include the R231, R153, R752 (for Line Protection and Restoration), and R851. The RA21 standalone ONU is also available with wavelength-specific optics. All of Metrobility's CWDM products are NEBS Level 1 certified. Contact us for more details and ordering information for these products. [..Top..]
