The high-performance ONYX Series Fiber Routing Switcher switches via fiber. It is suited for environments that use fiber to carry complete end-to-end digital video and audio. Switching sizes range from 8×8 to 128×128. It supports data rates up to 3.2Gbps. The switcher is modular designed. Each slot can hold one FOB-8 Module (8 Channel I/O Module) with eight LC connectors. The switcher is compatible with both Multi-Mode (MM) and Single-Mode (SM). MM supports multi-mode fiber (MMF) of 850nm wavelength for transmission distance up to 500 ft (approx 150 m). SM supports single-mode fiber (SMF) of 1310nm wavelength for transmission distance up to 98360 ft (30 km). SM also supports MMF. It is controlled through the local front panel or the supporting control applications for normal switching. Multiple control interfaces include RS-232/422, TCP/IP, CAN and C-BUS. Three frame versions are available: 2RU, 4RU and 8RU. ONYX Series Fiber Routing Switcher supports redundant control and power supply.
