Model 907E Multiplexer

VIDEO, ETHERNET AND SERIAL DATA MULTIPLEXER

The 907E is an expandable video, Ethernet and serial data multiplexer providing two (2) analog video channels, one (1) 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps option) port and four (4) galvanically isolated RS-232/422/485 serial channels. This combination of signals makes the 907E an ideal single-card solution for applications with mixed signals and limited space while also supporting future growth using standard 907 expansion cards. In addition to on-board status LEDs for optical link, video, Ethernet and serial channels, the 907E includes real-time Ethernet diagnostics when used with the 907-DIAG-E card and graphical user interface (GUI) software.

Expansion cards may be stacked on the 907E to add up to 48 data channels in a variety of formats, including RS-232/422/485, TTL, Ethernet, CAN Bus, hydrophone, audio, responders, and various analog and digital sonar signals. The 907E runs from a +5 VDC power supply, as normally required for the 907 product family, but is also available in a version for +12 VDC power.

Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers allow for a wide variety of optical wavelengths, fiber types, and link distances. Common transceiver options provide optical power budgets of 16 - 24 dB with up to 10 km of singlemode fiber or 2 km of multimode fiber. Coarse wave division multiplexer (CWDM) transceivers and optical cards are used to combine the 907E with multiple 907 media converters or other multiplexers. Redundant fiber operation is also supported with splitters and fiber optic switch cards.

For systems with a low channel count, a single 907E card can replace separate video, Ethernet, data and optical CWDM cards.
