Model TC8530   4-12 channels of Data & 1 Ethernet, Fiber Optic Multiplexer   TC8530S Standalone Unit  TC8530R with TCRM195 19" Card Cage Features  Product or Application Questions (click here) Multiplexes one 10/100 Ethernet, & 4-12 channels of RS-232, RS-422, TTL, or Dry Contact Network Management (Web, Telnet) Two-Way "One Fiber" Option Multimode or Single Mode (1300/1550nm) Power Redundancy, Optical Redundancy Standard 12VDC, Optional 24VDC, -48VDC, 125VDC or 115/230VAC Industrial Hardened (optional) Hi-Temp2 Version Exceeds NEMA & Caltrans Traffic Control Specs 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.   TC8530 Specifications Data Rates Ethernet 10/100 Mbps (10M on fiber side) RS-232, RS-422, TTL, Dry Contact Up to 38.4 Kbps Channel Capacity Ethernet 1 RS-232, RS-422, TTL, Dry Contacts 12 Optical Transmitter ELED, ELED, LASER* Receiver PIN Diode Wavelength 1300nm Multimode 1300nm, 1550nm Single Mode Fiber Optic Connectors ST, FC or SC Loss Budget* (1300nm, 1550nm) Multimode (62.5/125µm): 15dB Single Mode (9/125µm): 20dB Electrical 10/100 Ethernet Connectors RJ45 (Female) RS-232, RS-422, V.35 Connectors RJ45 (Female)   * Contact factory for higher requirements ** Future Release System Bit Error Rate 1 in 1010 or better Alarm Dry Contact Normal Open Visual Indicators System PWR A, PWR B, VccA, VccB, ALARM Channel Status RXD, TXD, Alarm Optical Signal Status SyncB, Optic in Use, RXA, RXB, VLIN Diagnostic Functions Local and Remote Loopback Power Standard 12VDC @ 1.2A Optional 24VDC or  115/230VAC (with external power cube (on Standalone Units) Optional 24VDC -48VDC, 125VDC or 115/230VAC (on Rackmount Cards) Temperature Operating -10° to 50°C Hi-Temp (optional) -20° to 70°C Hi-Temp2 (optional) -40° to 80°C Storage -40° to 90°C Humidity 95% non-condensing Physical (Standalone/Wallmount Unit) Height (6.70 cm) 2.6" Width (18.14 cm) 7.1" Depth (24.80 cm) 9.8" Weight (1.36 kg) 3 lbs. 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.
