Perfect upgrade for missioncritical multiplexing
The BB FOCUS uses packetized multiplexing technology running at gigabit Ethernet speeds over dedicated fiber optic networks. New switching technology negates the historical pitfalls of using Ethernet in critical communication applications.
The system offers sub-50ms redundant-loop switching and truly predictable end-to-end delay.
Latency in a given channel is nearly independent of the number of nodes between end terminals, with passthrough delays of only a few microseconds, compared to the 125-plus microseconds required in T1, E1, SONET or SDH systems. Shorter delays lead directly to better performing, more reliable networks.
Rugged Design, Secure Interface
Like standard FOCUS T1/E1 multiplexers, the hardened BB FOCUS was designed specifically to be immune to the environmental variations seen in power substations and industrial environments.
The standard web browser interface allows parameters to be changed and data safely viewed from anywhere on the network. Password protection with data encryption keeps the interface and all of your information secure.
The administrative system also allows channel module-to-channel module mapping, without creating pass-through channel assignment at any in-between nodes. If you have ever struggled with time slot maps through TDM networks, then you can appreciate what a tremendousbenefit this is.
