The OBD 1514 E is a matched pair of compact Ethernet switches designed to extend the reach of 1GbE signals over long distances. The two switches are linked via simplex bi-directional fiber which operates at a constant 1Gbit/s speed.
This pair of modules uses WDM (Wavelength-division Multiplexing) fiber technology in a closed loop environment, It functions as a simple Ethernet extender solution. The fiber link supports distances up to 10km* and provides a single, high speed 1Gbit/s error-free optical connection between the two locations.
Each OBD 1514 E module has two standard RJ45 Ethernet ports. The complete system functions as a 4 ports Ethernet switch, providing two standard RJ45 Ethernet ports at each end bridged with fiber. For legacy systems, each Ethernet port can be set for automatic speed detection (10/100/1000) or forced to 10 Mbit/s. Each port uses auto crossover detection or can be forced manually if needed. These functions are available using the dip switch located on the device.
Note: This system uses WDM and should only be used in point to point applications. WDM cannot be integrated into a CWDM system.
