Fibre Technologies has introduced two new flexible 10Gbps multiprotocol transponders - FCX10G and FCX10G2 – that will increase available broadband bandwidth and improve traffic management, without the need for a costly network upgrade.

New additions to the range of manageable system products from access specialist arcutronix, these fibre optic transponders allow data transmission via single or dual independent channels, each supporting data rates of 9.5 Gbps up to 11.32 Gbps:

These speeds make them useful for all 10Gbps applications, such as Ethernet LAN/WAN, SDH/Sonet, Fibre Channel, Fibre Channel with FEC (forward error correction) and OTN (optical transport network).
