Board Level Computer Products
ACT/Technico has been supplying integrated embedded solutions since 1978. Our experience enables us to provide you with the right platform for your program needs. To support this effort, we have a first-class offering of VME, CPCI and other standards based products -- single board computers, mass storage, networking, device drivers, and more. We take true COTS products, such as single board computers and PMCs, then enhance and qualify them to meet your rugged requirements.
Fiber Optic Multiplexing
To exploit the full bandwidth of fiber, multiplexing combines many signals of various types — video, serial data, network data, control lines — onto one optical fiber. Multiplexers that combine a number of signals electrically are typically called time division multiplexers (TDM); discrete parts of each input signal is assigned a time slot in the outgoing data stream. Moog has a wide range of TDM options that allow multiple electrical channels to be multiplexed onto one or more optical fibers. We also produce multiplexers that combine a number of optical signals onto one or two fibers. These multiplexers use wave division multiplexers (WDM) because they transmit different signals on different wavelengths of light on the same optical fiber. Both multiplexing techniques can be used separately or together to simplify optical transmission systems and reduce cost, improve reliability, reduce weight and improve performance.
