Single Optical L16.2 Module, L16.2-1-LC


17.1  Module Description

This is an STM16 long haul module for transmission at 1550nm optical wavelength.The main functions of the module are O/E- E/O conversion and SDH multi-/demultiplexing with VC-12, VC3 and VC-4 granularity. See section 5.1.1  Multiplexing Structure and Mapping modes, page 5-1.

17.1.1  Power Consumption

The module power consumption is 18W.

17.2  External L-16.2-LC Interface

The 1xL-16.2-LC line interface bitrate is bi-directional with a transmit (Tx) and a receive (Rx) direction. Tx and Rx directions are transmitted on separate fibres. The optical interfaces are compliant to ITU-T Rec. G.957 L-16.2 Long Haul specification for transmission on Single Mode (SM) fibre.

17.2.1  Connector Type

Figure 17-1 The physical connector is a LC connector. See Figure 17-2.

17.2.2  Optical Budget

For definitions of optical parameters, see ITU-T Rec. G.957. Reference point S means transmit interface while R is the receive interface.
