Benefits of the Solution
- Transparent interconnection of PBXs and LAN networks over optical fiber.
- Works at the G.703 bit level. Any device that uses this standard for transport can be connected to MediaMUX;
- Transparent voice transport, with no latency or intervention on G.704 and signaling channel traffic.
- Transparent connection at level 2 of Gigabit Ethernet networks
- Supports CWDM applications

Voice PBX and Giga over fiber
In general, the growth of organizations and the diversification of their activities involve the opening of new work centers. Most of the time, communication between branch offices is required to share resources, or in the case of telephone service, to reduce costs.
For environments with existing optical fiber (the company’s own or leased) between centers, TELNET offers the MediaMUX solution to connect telephone switchboards or PBXs and local network at Gigabit Ethernet speeds over the same optical fiber.

In short, MediaMUX transparently connects devices with E1 communication interfaces along with local network equipment. The previous diagram shows two Branch Offices, each of which has a MediaMUX module installed in a MicroSAE chassis. Each MediaMUX card has 4 E1 ports and a Gigabit Ethernet interface.
The traffic carried over these interfaces is multiplexed on a common output, which will be the one that maintains the connection with the remote Office. This connection between offices can be done over multi-mode or single-mode fibers, and in the latter case, different optical powers, and even CWDM wavelengths can be selected.
It’s important to note that the transport of both traffic types (E1 and GbE) is done transparently, without reducing bandwidth or TDM traffic encoding processes. The voice signaling channels, as well as the reference clock transport for PBX synchronization, are carried without any intervention or inducing unwanted lag.
