F-TEL  Fiber Optic Phone Adapter

RAD F-TEL Fiber Optic Phone Adapter
 

FEATURES
  • F-TEL is a Fiber Optic Telephone Adapter, providing direct, secure fiber optic connection between any telephone set and a PABX, or between two telephone sets.
  • F-TEL converts the electrical signals into optical signals. Two in-line units are required to complete a fiber link: a PABX unit (F-TEL/CO) for the PABX side and a Subscriber unit (F-TEL/SUB) for the subscriber telephone set.
  • As a backup to the AC supply, the PABX and Subscriber units can be automatically powered by an on-board nickel-cadmiun rechargeable battery. Another backup option is use of an external low-voltage DC power supply or battery, that can be connected to a special DC connector located on the rear panel of the unit.
  • F-TEL can be operated in two typical configurations:
    • Telephone-to-PABX optical connection (Subscriber to PABX)
    • Telephone-to-telephone optical connection (Subscriber to Subscriber).
  • F-TEL is designed to operate with several grades and sizes of fiber optic cable. Use of fiber optic cabling provides immunity to electrical interference such as EMI and RFI.
  • Three optical interfaces are available:
    • 850 nm wavelength for multimode fibers
    • 1300 nm wavelength for single mode fibers
    • laser diode (1300 nm) for single mode over extended range
  • The laser diode has an internal temperature control circuit to compensate for ambient temperature changes.
  • LED status indicators are available on the front panel of both units for indicating the system status.
  • F-TEL is supplied as a standalone unit. Special hardware for mounting the unit in a 19" rack can be ordered separately
