907-GBE2 Media Converter

Dual Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter 907-GBE2 Media Converter

The Model 907-GBE2 is a Dual Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Media Converter. This PC/104 card offers two independent 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet ports (RJ-45) while maintaining the use of a single optical transceiver. This is the ideal solution for multi-beam sonar devices running “dual head” configurations, or any application that requires simultaneous yet dedicated point-to-point “switchless” connections over fiber. The 907-GBE2 may be used as a standalone card or optically integrated into a 907 system stack via CWDM modules. Optical power budgets are typically 20 - 26 dB over 10 km of singlemode fiber. Enhanced diagnostics are provided by on-board LEDs and through a dedicated Ethernet link when used with the diagnostics card (907-DIAG-E) and corresponding graphical user interface (GUI) software.

Features

Two independent (switchless) 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet links
Single optical transceiver running with 2500, 1250 or 625 Mbaud
optical link (switch settable)
Wavelength selectable/interchangeable SFP transceivers
Rugged design for marine environment, including 6000 psi
pressure tolerant version
Diagnostics embedded in optical link for remote access

Benefits

Reduces cost and size by replacing two GbE media converters with a single card and single optical transceiver
Switchless design provides low latency and compatibility
with non-standard packets often used by sonars and other proprietary data link
Supports operation over multimode fiber with lower optical rate settings
Supports a wide range of optical options, including CWDM wavelengths for combining multiple cards on a single optical fiber
Simplifies troubleshooting with remote diagnostics and GUI
