Light Cat is "optical modem", refers to the optical Ethernet signal into other protocol signal transceiver equipment, but also plays the role of modulation and demodulation. The optical cat is also known as a single port optical transceiver, which acts as a relay transmission device for the local network, and is suitable for the optical terminal transmission equipment of the base station as well as the leased line equipment. And for the multiple-port optical transceiver is generally referred to as "optical transceiver", for a single port optical transceiver generally used in the client, work similar to the commonly used wide-area network (circuit) networking with the baseband modem, and there is called "Optical Modem", "Light cat", "Optical modem."

The working principle of the light cat

The equipment of light cat adopts large-scale integrated chip, simple circuit, low power consumption, high reliability, complete alarm state indication and perfect network management function.

Optical cats are similar to baseband modem (digital modem) equipment, and baseband modem is different from the access to the optical line, is the light signal. For the conversion of photoelectric signal in WAN and the conversion of interface protocol, access router is WAN access. Photoelectric transceiver is the conversion of photoelectric signal in LAN, but only signal conversion, there is no interface protocol conversion.

Application range of Light cat

Just Ethernet optical cat, mainly applied to distance super, more than 20KM, the middle need to pass SDH/PDH and other optical transmission equipment in the case of the application of light cats.

Generally speaking, the rate of the cat is packaged in the 2M circuit, so the light of the cat's light transceiver is also the difference in its rate, light cat is 2M, optical transceiver is 100M.

General Application Scenario:

Customer-Ethernet Optical cat-Optical cable-e1 cat -2m Cable-local SDH Optical transceiver-another bureau SDH Optical Transceiver-PDH Optical transceiver-e1 to Ethernet co-switch-customer devices (Ethernet switches or computers, etc.).

Of course, light cats also have v.35 light cats, v.24 light cats, RS-232 light cats and so on. The application is similar to the above.
