Transport Cube

{tab Overview}

 We use our fiber-optical expertise to provide simple, sturdy and lowest-cost turn-key transport solutions for access, metro and long haul networks to carriers, operators, ISPs, IXs and Data Centers. Our solutions rely on our components packaged and combined with further functions to plug-and-play carrier-grade systems. Due to a myriad of network topologies and data transmission standards interoperability has been of utmost importance. Various devices have been developed to enable connection of different networks.

Passive Transport System

{tab Overview}

 A much simpler and inherently CAPEX and OPEX saving form of transport is passive transport. Here signal generation and signal transport is done within the same equipment, e.g. an Ethernet Switch. Since signal conversion by itself does not add any benefits but only tremendous costs, risk of failure and in the best case only maintains the signal quality (but does not approve it) it is avoided.

Active Transport  System

{tab Overview}

 The "classic" but higher cost means of transport solutions are based on active transport systems. Here the signal generation (e.g. Ethernet Switch or DSLAM) and signal transport is physically separated on two platforms. The data signal will then be send via a local (client) transceiver to the transport system. This then has the same counterpart of transceiver (in terms of protocol, data rate and media type) to communicate locally to the terminal equipment.
