A mux is simply multiplexing the signals, bandwidth, etc.
Sending some information to you on this and our team can provide more
information if you're interested.

is a mux. Just pay attention to insertion loss numbers to make sure you still
have the optical budget you need.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Backhauling fiber 80 miles at 10Gig They do have smaller
ones, but the cost of the mux isn't that much. Our 18 channel ones are about
$1500 for the pair, IIRC.

What equipment can we use (cost efficient) to light up 80 miles of dark fiber
at 10gbit?
