Fiber Protection Switch Resilience for fiber optic networks MICROSENS fiber optic solutions intelligent, reliable, high-performance

MICROSENS Fiber Protection Switch Increased reliability lower maintenance costs Increases the entire availability of critical fiber optic infrastructures and protects the network integrity from loss through blackouts or system failures

How many single points of failure can you afford? This question is asked more and more by those responsible for risk and change management with regard to growing conformity requirements. MICROSENS Fiber Protection Switch supports companies in cost effectively assuring the availability of the fiber optic infrastructures used and their associated mission critical systems. Through optical bypasses, the switch increases the tolerance of fiber optic networks regarding both single and multi point failures and limits the effects of a brownout or complete system outage. If, for example, a failure at...

fiber optic ring networks High-performance fiber optic networks in ring topologies are more often found in the industrial and energy fields, this is due to the requirement for fault tolerance in singular network nodes MICROSENS Fiber Protection Switch – Installation Scenario In energy production and automated technology, the application of fiber optic rings is becoming increasingly important in order that we ensure the maximum availability of mission critical systems. Implementing MICROSENS Fiber Protection Switch, companies have cost effectively increased the margin of error across their fiber...

INDUSTRY AND AUTOMATED TECHNOLOGY ENERGY PRODUCTION AND WIND ENERGY REDUCING MAINTENANCE COSTS & AVOIDING PRODUCTION DOWN TIMES OPTIMISING MAINTENANCE PROCESSES Today, modern companies in automated technology rely Energy and data networks are continually growing together. on redundant fiber optic rings for industrial Ethernet Today, wind energy plants and intelligent local network applications in order to avoid costly production downtimes. stations are connected via fiber optic rings in order that However, the simple redundancy of a self-healing fiber they can transmit and collate measurement...

Due to the distances achievable with fiber optic cabling, its availability is now more commonplace where the monitoring of measuring data is transmitted more reliably over longer distances, for example when connecting signal and traffic information systems along motorways or railway lines. MICROSENS Fiber Protection Switch Contrary to fiber optic networks within ring topologies, bus topologies offer no additional resilience. If a single network component is affected by a failure or brownout, then communication with the network components behind the failed component is no longer possible. This...

TRAFFIC ENGINEERING, TUNNEL AND RAILWAY RAW MATERIALS PRODUCTION, COAL AND STRIP MINING MORE RELIABILITY FOR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS RELIABLE TECHNOLOGY FOR THE TOUGHEST ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS The reliability in fiber optic networks is of vital importance The growing automation of underground mining has led for the operational traffic infrastructure. Control centres to an operational fiber optic infrastructure becoming one monitor and manage the traffic flow as well as signal and of the most important requirements for the application alarm systems. Failure of these important systems is more...
