Chapter1 Product Overview System Modules

All TDM4Es can be replaced or added at any time during operation of the system.

Setting up a communication link requires a pair of fully identical TDM4Es. Up to

four channels of optical communication of the TDM4E are convertedto separate

wavelengths of the ITU-T grid for DWDM.

The multiplexer module (MUX) combines the optical signals into a combined

signalfor transportation using one single-mode fiber to the optional remote switch

module (RSM). The RSM enhances the system with a 1 + 1 line protection. The

demultiplexer module (DMX) receives the combined signal from the optional

RSM. In the DMX, the combined optical signal is separated into the original

wavelengths of optical communication. These signals are then transferred to the

TDM4Es for reconversion into the application signal. (See Figure 1-15.) The

TDM4Es support the 200 Mbit/s clock rate used by the ESCON protocol.
