Product Description
The Fiberplex FOI - DST3 - SC Isolator is a top - notch solution for T3 or DS3 communications. It offers full electrical isolation, making it ideal for high - electrical - noise areas or within RF - shielded enclosures. Unlike traditional cables, the fiber optic cable used in this isolator is immune to impulse noise, crosstalk, and EMI. It also enhances communication privacy as it doesn't emit any radiation. Moreover, it can transmit data over much longer distances compared to copper wiring. While traditional T3 coax cabling has a 1100 - ft (335 - m) limit, the multimode optics on this unit can reach up to 2 km, and single - mode optics can extend the range to 20 km. Key features include a 44.736 Mbps data rate, compliance with ANSI T1.102 - 1993, Telcordia GR - 499 - COR, and ITU - T G.775 for loss of signal. It's suitable for SONET Add/Drop Multiplexers (ADMs), PDH Equipment, ATM WAN access routers and switches, and meets K41 protection specs for T3 systems. It comes with multimode SC optics. Technical specs: Power voltage ranges from 7V to 12V with a typical 9V and 300 mA supply current. Storage temperature is from - 40 to 85 °C, and operating temperature is 0 to 50 °C. The data rate is 44.736 Mbps, line encoding uses AMI or B3ZS, and the interface connector is BNC. The multimode has a 62.5/125 μm size, a 2 - km max distance, a 1300 - nm wavelength, - 16 dBm output power, - 33 dBm receiver sensitivity, and a 17 - dB loss budget.
Using the Fiberplex FOI - DST3 - SC Isolator is straightforward. First, make sure the power supply voltage is within the 7 - 12V range, with a typical 9V. Connect your T3 or DS3 device to the isolator using the BNC interface connector. The isolator will then provide electrical isolation and help you communicate effectively, especially in noisy environments. When it comes to storage, keep the isolator in an area where the temperature is between - 40 and 85 °C. During operation, ensure the temperature stays between 0 and 50 °C. Avoid exposing the fiber optic cable to sharp objects that could damage it. For maintenance, check the cable regularly for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any issues with the data rate or connection, double - check the power supply and the connections. And that's it! With these simple steps, you can get the most out of your Fiberplex FOI - DST3 - SC Isolator.
