FlexPoint™ OC12FF
Single-mode to Multimode Fiber Converters for OC-12
The FlexPoint
that provides reliable and cost-effective extension of network
distances by connecting multimode fiber networks or devices
over single-mode fiber cabling.
No manual configuration is required with the plug-and-play
FlexPoint OC12FF . Connect the fiber cables to the appropriate
interface and the installation is complete.
The fiber port operates at 1310nm or 1550nm and features SC
connectors. Multimode fiber models support distances of up
to 550m, and single-mode fiber models support distances of
up to 80km.
The FlexPoint OC12FF features descriptions of the LED
indicators on the label for easy in-the-field installation and
maintenance. The LEDs report the availability of power and
the detection of devices attached to the fiber ports.
OC12FF is a protocol-independent fiber converter
FlexPoint modules can be mounted utilizing optional wallmounting hardware or with DIN-rail mounting brackets. They
can also be rack-mounted in a 5-Module shelf or in a high-density
14-Module, power-redundant Powered Chassis.
FlexPoint modules installed in the 5-Module shelf or used as
standalone devices can be powered by an external AC to DC
power adapter, or through the 5VDC chassis connector.
Standalone modules can also be powered by attaching an
external DC power supply (18-60VDC). When used in the
14-Module power-redundant Powered Chassis with any
combination of AC and DC power supplies, the installed
modules are powered via the 5VDC chassis connector.
The wide variety of FlexPoint mounting and power options provide
flexible upgrade paths as network requirements change and
grow.

The FlexPoint OC12FF fiber converter can extend the network
across single-mode fiber with distances up to 80km. In this
application, the customer's router is connected to an Add Drop
Multiplexer (ADM) providing access to the SONET ring using a
pair of FlexPoint OC12FF fiber converters. The converters
provide the multimode to single-mode conversion.
