20140086583 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING LAN SIGNALS OVER A TRANSPORT SYSTEM - A computer system and method for transmitting LAN signals over transport systems. LAN signals are generated in any client LAN compliant interface. A transceiver receives the client LAN signal in the LAN format. The client LAN signals are not converted to a SONET transmission format at any time before reaching the transceiver. The transceiver then converts the client LAN signal to an internal electrical LAN signal before re-clocking the internal electrical LAN signal. The re-clocked internal electrical LAN signal is then re-modulated into a second LAN signal. The second LAN signal is then transmitted to a transport system. | 03-27-2014 |
20090129774 | Distributed Terminal Optical Transmission System - Optical signals generated from customer premise equipment (CPE) at the edges of the metro domain networks are facilitated. The CPEs connect to extension terminals that transform the optical signal originating at the CPE into a format for long haul transmission. The optical signal then propagates to a primary terminal where the signal is multiplexed with other optical signals from other extension terminals. The multiplexed signals are then transmitted to a second primary terminal. The signal is then demultiplexed from other optical signals and transmitted to the proper extension terminal. At the extension terminal, the demultiplexed optical signal is transformed from its LH format back into a format suitable for inter-connection to a CPE. The signal undergoes optical-to-electrical conversion only at the extension terminals or end points, which can be located at lessee's facility. The only equipment located in lessor's facility is the primary terminal containing line amplifiers and add/drop nodes. | 05-21-2009 |

20080285982 | SINGLE FIBER DUPLEX OPTICAL TRANSPORT - The invention pertains to optical fiber transmission systems, and is particularly relevant to optical transport systems employing optical amplifiers. In particular the invention teaches an apparatus and method that allows cost effective co-directional operation of an optical amplifier to support full duplex traffic on a single fiber, and the design of an optical fiber transmission system based on this optical amplifier technology. | 11-20-2008 |
20080226302 | CHROMATIC DISPERSION COMPENSATION SYSTEM AND METHOD - Dispersion compensation is provided in an optical transmission system. An optical line couples first and second transceivers, and a plurality of amplifiers coupled to the optical line are spaced throughout the optical line with variable span distances. A plurality of dispersion compensation modules include a coarse granularity fiber, a connector, and a fine granularity fiber. A memory is associated with the dispersion compensators to provide information related to the value of the dispersion compensation. | 09-18-2008 |
