Overview
 

Using the fiber optic medium for Ethernet applications has become more popular due to fiber optic's excellent physical features, especially for long distance networks. However, fiber optic cable is very expensive, so if we can device a solution that uses only 1 cable instead of 2, the infrastructure cost can be cut in half. This is where Moxa comes in. The Moxa ME60 Series provides a solution that reduces your expense by 50%!

The Moxa ME60 Series of Single-Strand Fiber Converters supports Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology that allows two independent data communication channels to transmit and receive over one standard, single mode, fiber optic line. This not only doubles your existing bandwidth, but also effectively reduces your expense of new fiber optic infrastructure.



Features
 
  • Single-Strand Fiber Converters allow transmission and receiving over single strand fiber with WDM technology
  • Media Conversion between 10/100BaseT(X) and 100BaseFX
  • Supports 10/100BaseT(X) auto-negotiation
  • Select TP port's cable connection by DIP Switch


50% Cost Saving for Fiber Optic Infrastructures
With a set of ME60 series products (ME60A and ME60B), you can double the utilization of your existing, costly fiber optic cable, but save 50% of the cost of a newly installed fiber optic application.


General Media Converter Solution

A general media converter requires a pair of fiber optic cables for data transmission and receiving.


TX/RX over a pair of fiber optic cables


Single-Strand Fiber Converter Solution

Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) supports bi-directional data transmission and receiving using dual wavelengths (1310/1550 nm) over a single strand, of single-mode optical fiber.


TX/RX over one fiber optic strand
