2.2. Specifications
2.3. Blades
The ACI-2058’s modular design enables you to manage multiple protocols and data rates in a
single chassis. You can populate the switch with up toeighteendifferent blades, each blade
having from four to sixteen ports. In addition to one-to-one, one-to-many, and loop
connectivity, blades can provide the following capabilities:
• Media conversion. Some blades use optical connectors while others use electrical.
Connect a port on a fiber optic blade to a port on a blade using copper connectors and,
dependent on the blade model, the ACI-2058 seamlessly converts signals from one
medium to the other, assuming that the optical and copper blades use the same protocol.
Optical signals can also be converted from multimode (shortwave) to single-mode
(longwave).
• Repeater. Most blades for the ACI-2058 extract the clock from the signal, clean up jitter,
and then add the clock back to the signal.
• Retimed signals. Certain blades for the ACI-2058 extract the clock from the signal,
clean up jitter, and then add a switch-generated clock back to the signal.
