Optical Transceiver
Description
The 1785-TR10BF mini optical transceiver can be connected to the AUI
interface of a device either directly or via an AUI cable. It is connected to
the fiber optic cable by a BFOC socket.
The 1785-TR10BF mini optical transceiver offers these functions according
to IEEE 802.3 10BASE-FL:
•
indication via LEDs of data transmission and reception through the fiber
optic cable
•
detection of data collisions in the network and reporting them to the
terminal equipment as well as indicating them by an LED
•
ability to enable/disable the SQE test: at the end of every transmit
operation, a short collision signal (heart beat) approx. 1 µs long is sent to
monitor the electronics
•
jabber control and display: protect the network from data packets that are
too long (> 70 ms)
•
link status: an IDLE signal continuously monitors the fiber optic cable
segment for breakage
