DT4032N
Digital Transceiver
for NC4000 Fiber Node Platforms
(5-65 MHz pass band) |
Aurora Networks’ DT4032N Digital Transceiver is a component of Aurora's
Integrated Digital Transport System that combines two major functions into one compact
package: digitization of legacy 5–65 MHz RF return path signals and an Ethernet Access
Device. The DT4032N transceiver digitizes the legacy RF return path and multiplexes
native Ethernet traffic from the optical receiver port of a plug-in (SFP) transceiver
module into the return transport system. By providing virtual pipes for Fast Ethernet
services and legacy RF return on a single fiber, the DT4032N Digital Transceiver alleviates
fiber exhaustion, greatly simplifies the network and provides distinct time-to-market
advantages in turning up new revenue bearing services, including voice, video and data
services.
The DT4032N transceiver supports both point-to-point and concatenated
applications. For concatenated applications, multiple DT4032Ns can be designed into a
daisy-chained configuration. The module's optical transmit/receive ports are implemented
with optional plug-in transceivers for ultimate flexibility and affordability. Conforming
to the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Multisource Agreement, these state-of-the-art
transceivers are available in a variety of transmit/receive wavelengths, including dedicated
1310nm (for 10 and 40 km links), 1550nm (for links up to 40 km), and CWDM ITU grid (for
links up to 40 km), all operating at data rates of 2.125 Gbps. Longer spans are supported
by using Aurora’s DX4515 Digital Transponder.
The DT4032N is designed as a plug-in module for Aurora Networks’ NC4000 series
Optical Nodes. Aurora Networks supplies DT4032N transceivers either with the NC4000 as a
fully configured and tested node or as modules for existing customers of the NC4000 desiring
to implement digital return and/or upgrade to Ethernet transport capability.
