SummitGbX™ enables
Extreme Networks' Summit LAN switches to break through standard
Gigabit Ethernet distance limitations. With SummitGbX, Gigabit
Ethernet links are guaranteed up to 80 kilometers and can go to 100
kilometers or more, depending on the quality of the long-distance
fiber-optic line. This allows the deployment of full-duplex Gigabit
Ethernet over long distances via private or leased single-mode
fiber-optic lines.
Without SummitGbX, Gigabit Ethernet distances are only guaranteed
up to 5 kilometers, which limits deployment in campus networks.
SummitGbX extends Gigabit Ethernet distances across metropolitan area
networks, making it an ideal solution for service providers.
One SummitGbX is deployed at each end of a long-distance
fiber-optic line. Each SummitGbX features a Gigabit Ethernet port to
connect a local Summit LAN switch and a long distance interface set,
which consists of one optical transmitter and one optical receiver
port to connect to a SummitGbX at the other end of a fiber optic line.
SummitGbX uses two signal paths - one from the Gigabit Ethernet
interface to the long distance fiber interface and one from the long
distance fiber interface to the Gigabit Ethernet interface. Each
signal direction consists of an optical receiver, a clock/data
recovery unit (CRU) and a transmitter. The CRU maximizes signal
quality, thereby minimizing errors and optimizing cable length
performance.
