Canoga Perkins Adds Fiber Optic Link Monitor to EdgeAccess LAN Extension Products.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers CHATSWORTH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 9, 2002 Canoga Perkins, a leading supplier of fiber optic extension equipment and cost effective CWDM (Course WDM) An optical transmission method that is used for shorter distances than dense WDM (DWDM). Also known as "wide WDM," CWDM transmits fewer channels and uses wider spacing between the channels for distances up to 60 km. Wider spacing up to 25 nm, compared to 1. systems, now provides continuous monitoring of the fiber optic communications link between LAN (Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used. extension products as a standard feature. This feature provides added value to the user and ensures a good communications link. The L321 Fast Ethernet to Fiber Media Converter, L311 Ethernet to Fiber Media Converter and the upcoming L331 Gigabit Ethernet Extender See Media Center Extender, bus extender and DOS extender. use a unique management technique that does not take away any of the user's payload. The feature operates in the idle time The duration of time a device is in an idle state, which means that it is operational, but not being used. that is present in all circuits. The intelligent LAN extension products communicate with each other and monitor the fiber optic communications link. In the event of low optical power, optical reflections or excessive errors, the fiber optic communications link can be automatically shut down. This will cause an alarm notification to be sent to the user. All of the above mentioned intelligent LAN extension products are NEBS Level 3 tested and certified, assuring a superior, reliable product. These products can extend an Ethernet LAN up to 120 Km, allowing new applications that could not previously be implemented. "Canoga Perkins provided the industry's first 10 Mbps Ethernet LAN extender for single mode fiber optic cable Noun 1. fiber optic cable - a cable made of optical fibers that can transmit large amounts of information at the speed of light fibre optic cable transmission line, cable, line - a conductor for transmitting electrical or optical signals or electric power many years ago. Since then we have progressed and now offer a wide array of LAN extension products," said Jack Buhn, Canoga Perkins President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.
