Spatial Multiplexer Sample Clauses

Spatial Multiplexer. Connecting between Singlemode Fibers (SMF) and Multicore Fibers (MCF) is made simple. The 3D Optofan Series enables users to dramatically increase the amount of data that can be transferred across an optical fiber, reducing cabling costs and dimensions whilst maximising data bandwidth. Ideal for applications where space is at a premium and high bandwidth connectivity is essential. Fiber-based tapered multicore connector (TMC) was first utilized to couple signals into and out of the MCF. Because several cores are densely packed in a small region, the connectivity of each individual core between MCF becomes very difficult. For example, splicing of the MCF requires careful precision alignment. Practical use of MCF requires coupling of signals into and out of each core independently. To overcome this problem, a new TMC is designed and fabricated and the structure of TMC is illustrated in Figure 18. The TMC preserves individual cores at both ends of the connection. Seven single core fibers are tapered together to match the MCF spacing. One end of the resulting taper can then be connected to the 7-core MCF via fusion splicing, while the other end consists of seven individual single-core fibers. It should be noted that the TMC is different from tapered fiber bundle (TFB) which is often used for coupling pump light sources into cladding pumped fiber lasers and amplifiers. As shown in Fig. 3, the TMC keeps the individual cores at both ends of the connection, and so prevents cross-talks or optical power coupling between cores. In contrast, a TFB merges light from multiple cores into a single core. In order to achieve a low crosstalk and low insertion loss in TMC, a special single-mode fiber is used. Experimental results for insertion loss and crosstalk of two seven- core TMCs are shown in Table 8 [seven-core-oe-10]. The insertion loss for each connector of the TMCs ranges from 0.38 dB to 1.8 dB, and the crosstalk between cores is less than −38 dB. The slightly high coupling loss of some cores can be readily reduced by improving core matching.

  • Unbundled Channelization (Multiplexing) 5.7.1 To the extent NewPhone is purchasing DS1 or DS3 or STS-1 Dedicated Transport pursuant to this Agreement, Unbundled Channelization (UC) provides the optional multiplexing capability that will allow a DS1 (1.544 Mbps) or DS3 (44.736 Mbps) or STS-1 (51.84 Mbps) Network Elements to be multiplexed or channelized at a BellSouth central office. Channelization can be accomplished through the use of a multiplexer or a digital cross-connect system at the discretion of BellSouth. Once UC has been installed, NewPhone may request channel activation on a channelized facility and BellSouth shall connect the requested facilities via COCIs. The COCI must be compatible with the lower capacity facility and ordered with the lower capacity facility. This service is available as defined in NECA 4.

  • Multiplexing Hardware or software you use to • pool connections, • reroute information, or • reduce the number of devices or users that directly access or use the software (sometimes referred to as “multiplexing” or “pooling”), does not reduce the number of licenses of any type that you need.

  • SUBLOOPS 45.1. Sprint will offer unbundled access to copper subloops and subloops for access to multiunit premises wiring. Sprint will consider all requests for access to subloops through the ICB process due to the wide variety of interconnections available and the lack of standards. A written response will be provided to CLEC covering the interconnection time intervals, prices and other information based on the ICB process as set forth in this Agreement.

  • Copper Subloops Sprint will make available access to copper subloops on an unbundled basis. A copper subloop is a portion of a Copper Loop, or Hybrid Loop, and is comprised entirely of copper wire or copper cable that acts as a transmission facility between any accessible terminal in Sprint’s outside plant, including inside wire owned or controlled by Sprint, and the end-user customer premises. A copper subloop can also include intermediate devices, such as repeaters, used to establish the transmission path. Copper subloops can be used by CLEC to provide voice-grade services as well as digital subscriber line services. Access to copper subloops is subject to the collocation provisions of this Agreement. Copper subloop consists of the distribution portion of the copper loop. Sprint is not obligated to offer feeder loop plant as a stand-alone UNE.

  • Local Circuit Switching Capability, including Tandem Switching Capability 4.2.1 Local circuit switching capability is defined as: (A) line-side facilities, which include, but are not limited to, the connection between a loop termination at a main distribution frame and a switch line card; (B) trunk-side facilities, which include, but are not limited to, the connection between trunk termination at a trunk-side cross-connect panel and a switch trunk card; (C) switching provided by remote switching modules; and (D) all features, functions, and capabilities of the switch, which include, but are not limited to: (1) the basic switching function of connecting lines to lines, line to trunks, trunks to lines, and trunks to trunks, as well as the same basic capabilities made available to BellSouth’s customers, such as a telephone number, white page listings, and dial tone; and (2) all other features that the switch is capable of providing, including but not limited to customer calling, customer local area signaling service features, and Centrex, as well as any technically feasible customized routing functions provided by the switch. Any features that are not currently available but are technically feasible through the switch can be requested through the BFR/NBR process.

  • Multiple Bedroom Spaces If this Housing Agreement expressly identifies more than one bedroom space in a multi-bedroom apartment as assigned to Resident on page 1, then: (a) references to a “space” or “spaces” will be deemed to refer to all of the spaces assigned to Resident, or to the entire apartment if all of the bedrooms in an apartment are assigned to Resident; and (b) if Resident is assigned fewer than all of the bedroom spaces in an apartment, use of common areas will continue to be shared with other residents of the apartment and any calculation of Resident’s share of any charges assessed pro rata to all residents of an apartment will be made by dividing the number of bedroom spaces assigned to Resident by the total number of occupied bedroom spaces within the apartment.

  • Heavy Blocks An employee shall not be required to lift a building block in excess of 20 kg in weight unless such employee is provided with a mechanical aid or with an assisting employee; provided that an employee shall not to manually lift any building block in excess of 20 kg weight to a height of more than 4 feet (1.2m) above the working platform.

  • Connectivity User is solely responsible for providing and maintaining all necessary electronic communications with Exchange, including, wiring, computer hardware, software, communication line access, and networking devices.

  • Local Switching Interfaces 4.2.13.1 Newcomm shall order ports and associated interfaces compatible with the services it wishes to provide as listed in Exhibit A. BellSouth shall provide the following local switching interfaces:
