ITU G.703 Fibre Optic Converter

The MICROSENS ITU G.703 Optical Converter enables the full duplex transmission of a 2,048 Mbit/s interface along optical fiber according to the ITU G.703 standard.

As a result of the use of optical fiber it is possible to extend electrical G.703 connections by up to 2 km. The electrical G.703 signals are transmitted transparently on the optical fiber, which means that direction information (e.g. to synchronize the frames) is also transmitted.

The application of optical fiber offers, as well as lower attenuation, the advantage of immunity against disturbances and tapping. This enables furthermore the integration of already existing FO lines.

The converter is constructed in the form of an insertion card, which can be built into the MICROSENS 19" modular system. 12 insertion modules can be mounted into a modular system. If you need a redundant power supply, you only have 10 places left. In case of a partial equipping, the unloaded slots can be masked with blank covers. The MICROSENS ITU G.703 Optical Converter is also available as stand alone version.

Colour coded LEDs display the operating condition of the converter and can be used for error diagnostics.
