EM316GEMX4R
Overview
The Fiber Driver® LinkMux family from MRV is a line of time
division multiplexer (TDM) modules designed to optimize
fiber and wavelength use and to provide redundancy. The
EM316GEMX4R (GEMX4R) module multiplexes four channels of
Gigabit Ethernet over a proprietary 5-Gbps optical trunk using a
single wavelength. The GEMX4R uses standard SFP (Small Form-
factor Pluggable) transceivers, allowing optimization per each
individual interface for each application. The module supports
the full range of MRV fiber-optic and copper SFPs.
The EM316LNXNM-OT network manager provides a command
line interface (CLI) and an SNMP API to monitor and provision
the GEM4R module. The SNMP interface supports industry
standard network management systems (NMS) including MRV’s
MegaVision Pro®, which provides real-time access to link and
interface status, operating temperature, fan status, power supply
voltage, performance monitoring, and more.
Highlights and Benefits
Four 1-Gigabit Ethernet channels multiplexed
through a redundant 5-Gbps trunk
Optimization of existing fiber bandwidth and
wavelengths
Hot-swappable SFP trunk and access interfaces
for more applications and in-service maintenance
Transparent network operation – does not alter
data or packet framing
Real-time interface monitoring through SFP
Digital Diagnostics (SFF-8472)
--Early detection of potential network problems
--Reduced network down time and overhead
Link redundancy capability with fast switchover
– essential service protection for mission-critical
applications
SNMP management with MegaVision Pro®
support for end-to-end network management
Reduced capital and operating expenses
