10G 8x Gigabit TDM
The 8 port Gigabit TDM aggregates via time-division multiplexing (TDM) up to eight channels into a 10G Gigabit data stream and supports both Gigabit Ethernet and 1G Fibre Channel. Thus the transmission capacity of a 10G system can be significantly increased and maximized. The transmission on the line side can be achieved with standard XFP modules, or even with integrated DWDM Fixed Fibre Interfaces (FFI). For redundant or ring applications, the line interface can also be redundant. With the optional FEC-function (Forward Error Correction) great distances of 120 km and more can be achieved. For the exchange of network management information, the module has an integrated 10 Mbps data channel (in-line remote management), which will be transferred without restriction of the eight 1 Gigabit channels and is used for the coupling of the management modules via Ethernet. In addition, this Ethernet channel may be used for service purposes.
