The LTA41 is a traffic aggregation device allowing four TP local users to share a single fibre link thus saving up to 75% on active and passive network infrastructure. Ideal Applications are FTTD (Fibre To The Desk) where several users occupy an office and FTTH (Fibre To The Home) where several subscribers may be located in same multi-tenant building or even on the same floor. The device utilizes BMD™ (Buffered Media Domain) technology to allow connection of a variety of local users (PCs, hubs, switches, 10, 100Mbps etc) without the need to qualify the network or perform PDV calculations prior to the deployment of the F/O link. This is a real asset in FTTH projects as users are widely dispersed and have a large and unpredicted variety of equipment. The BMD along with VLANs implemented in the device provide a basic level of security and separation between the users as they allow only traffic between each user and the F/O link, blocking traffic between users. The fibre link implements FEF (Far End Fault signaling) to provide a true 2-way link integrity indication and together with the TEST switch - a powerful diagnostic tool. It is available in a variety of multi-mode and single-mode fibre interfaces (distances up to 150km!) as well as single-fibre-strand (with full bi-directional traffic) models. The compact yet robust enclosure allows installation as desk-top, shelf-mounted, wallmounted or directly in a half 19" rack. It is equipped with a reliable internal switching power supply for extended MTBF. The optional DC power supply facilitates deployment in Telco environments. The LTA31M is a SNMP managed in-band version providing connection for 3 users. In addition to common monitoring functions, the service provider can control remotely mode allowed to subscribers and also disconnect a "non-paying" user. When ordered with the ETR option, the device will operate at a wide temperature range of -10°C to +70°C for many outdoor applications. |
