Description
The
TC8530 Ethernet & Data Fiber Multiplexer multiplexes one 10/100 Ethernet channel
and 4 to 12 channels of RS-232, RS-422, TTL, or Dry Contact over single mode
(1300/1550nm) or multimode fiber (1300/1550nm).
The TC8530 supports distances to more than 100 km and offers a two-way, "one
fiber" communication option to maximize fiber cable usage. Optional redundant
power and optics include automatic switchover for maximum reliability.
Setup, diagnostics and control is accessed via Serial Terminal, Telnet
management ports. Diagnostics include LED indicators, dry contact alarms and
local and remote loopback.
The Ethernet port auto-negotiates at 10/100 with full 10Mbps throughput and rate
control in increments of 32Kbps. It is IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802.3x compliant.
Serial interface are RS-232, RS-422, TTL, Dry Contact.
The TC8530 is available as standalone unit or 1U high "pizza box". Fiber optic
connectors are ST, FC or SC. Standard power is 12VDC and includes built-in
redundancy. Optional power sources include 24VDC, -48VDC, 125VDC or 115/230VAC
with an external power cube. High temperature (-20°C to 70°C) and extreme
temperature (-40°C to 80°C) versions are also available.

Typical Application
(Application Questions)
Typical applications include extending SDH/SONET
backbones and adding Ethernet and Serial service to existing fiber optic
links. Service Providers use the TC8530 as an efficient, cost effective
method to provide their customers with Ethernet and Serial connections. The
two-way "one fiber," option can double usage of existing fiber optic cable
plants.
