The issue
The customer would like to upgrade video surveillance networks in the guardhouses at the main site gates. This upgrade requires 10 Gb/s on each link to the main gates in order to support video data feed; however, existing links use OM1 multimode fibers, which are longer than 550 m [1800 ft]. As a result, these fibers do not support bit rates of more than a few hundred Mb/s.
The AROONA solution
Cailabs’ AROONA-STAR solution guarantees a capacity > 10 Gb/s (as opposed to switching to LRM transceivers as was initially tried by the customer). The short time it takes to install AROONA (less than 4 hours) allows for a minimally disruptive upgrade. Neither work nor traffic is interrupted in the factory. AROONA is therefore the more favorable solution compared to a new fiber deployment.
The benefits of the solution
- 10 Gb/s enabled, with an easy upgrade path to 100G using WDM
- 4 hours of installation to upgrade 2 multimode links rather than several days as is the case with a new fiber roll-out
- Neither the construction work nor the production line on-site is interrupted
