Lynx Technik yellobrik OBD 1910 10Gbit/s Ethernet to Fiber bidirectional Transceiver

The OBD 1910 kit is a straightforward, plug-and-play solution designed to extend 1Gbit/s or 10Gbit/s electrical Ethernet networks over long distances using a single bidirectional fiber link. Traditional setups require separate fibers for transmission and reception; however, the OBD 1910 employs WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology to facilitate both directions over a single singlemode fiber, effectively doubling efficiency and reducing infrastructure costs. This kit includes two modules and two power supplies, ensuring a seamless setup without complex configurations.

Key Features

• Supports standard Ethernet/Optical signals at 10Gbit/s or 1Gbit/s
• Extends 10G Ethernet up to 30 km (18.6 miles) over a single bidirectional fiber link
• Maximum throughput of 20Gbit/s (full-duplex)
• Includes two modules and two power supplies
• Power and signal present LED indication
• Simple plug-and-play operation
• Supports hot swapping and hot plugging
