The Model EOS-6000 Optical A/B Switch series product line is a
high performance solution for network protection and optical
redundancy. Packaged in a convenient 1RU housing, this line of
optical switches provides an automatic or manual fiber switching
function to protect the network from inadvertent service outages
due to up-stream optical signal degradation. Each fiber’s optical
signal power level is continuously monitored, as is an adjustable
optical trip threshold for each channel. If the primary fiber’s optical
signal power level falls below the desired optical trip threshold, the
unit automatically switches to the secondary fiber, thus eliminating
the need for intervention of a system operator. The EOS-6000 is
capable of manual switching or can be switched remotely via
SNMP adding optical protection to many system applications.
The EOS-6000 series is designed as a low power, cost effective,
high performance switching solution for applications that demand
reliable and rapid response to changing network conditions.
