Fiber Optic Modems

TRI-TAC / IP FOM

The TRI-TAC / IP Fiber Optic Modem provides optical links between mobile shelter equipment and remote sites for secure tactical communications. Utilizing the Internet Protocol (IP) sections of this interface at each end of the multimode fiber optic cable, the modem converts between electronic and optical transmission modes for repeaterless communication at distances of up to 2 kilometers.

The IP section of the TRI-TAC / IP FOM automatically configures itself for 10 or 100 Mbps operation. The three 10 / 100 interfaces connect to digital communication equipment through RJ45 electrical connectors. The optical interface is accomplished via three sets of ST connectors (RX and TX each channel).
