RAD Unveils Long-Range Fiber Multiplexers for Mobile Backhaul, Service Extension and Multiservice Access
Optimux-1032 and Optimux-1025 Offer Total Fiber Uplink Capacity of 1,000Mbps
RAD Data Communications has introduced two new fiber optic multiplexers designed for mobile backhaul, service extension and multiservice access in campus installations.
Featuring simple, plug-and-play installation, the Optimux‐1032 and Optimux‐1025 provide flexible, cost‐effective point‐to‐point solutions for transporting multiple E1/T1 links and Ethernet over a fiber link to distances of up to 120 km (74.5 miles). The single‐box solution offers a pay‐as‐you‐grow model by supporting initial deployments of partial capacity with license‐based upgrades when needed.
“The Optimux‐1032 and Optimux-1025 provide a solution to carriers and service providers employing both TDM and PSN infrastructure that wish to extend services in a single chassis solution,” explains Meira Erez, Product Line Manager at RAD Data Communications. “They are also particularly appropriate for cellular backhaul applications in which 2G/3G and WiMAX services are transmitted transparently from rural locations to a central site over fiber, because the Optimux acts as a fiber extension, eliminating the need for massive fiber deployments to rural areas,” she continues. “In addition, the devices are ideal for ensuring inter‐branch connectivity of voice and data in campus applications common to universities, health care organizations, financial institutions, and government offices.”
The multiplexers are equipped with two fiber optic uplinks (one main and one backup), up to three user Ethernet ports and 16 E1 or T1 tributary ports. The Optimux solutions are managed by the RADview EMS carrier-class element management system, which uses a variety of access protocols.
RAD’s Optimux product line is part of its AXCESS+ portfolio of Multiservice Access Platform and First Mile solutions. AXCESS+ combines extensive support for legacy services with future‐proof Ethernet capabilities to address the challenges faced by utilities, transportation networks, carriers, and mobile operators in migrating to Next Generation networks and services with flexibility, efficiency and carrier‐class reliability.
