Fiber Optic Multiplexer Catalog Product Line

Moog has been developing rugged, subsea fiber-optic multiplexer systems for over 25 years. The expertise gained designing military telemetry systems for naval towed arrays in the 1980s led to several successful commercial product lines for video/data multiplexing in Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). Standard multiplexer systems are now available in several sizes, ranging from the Eurocard-based Model 903 system to smaller form factors, such as the PC/104-based Model 907 and credit-card-size Model 914. All systems are based on digital signal transmission using pulses of light through...

Welcome to the Moog Components Group Focal™ Fiber Optic Multiplexer Catalog. The fiber optic multiplexer literature, of which the catalog is a part, is organized in such a way as to make finding the information you need quick and easy. The catalog is structured into a selection guide, product guides, datasheets, and technical Other literature on Focal™ multiplexer products, such as user manuals, configuration drawings, 3D models, market guides, technology briefs and application notes, can be found at www.moog.com/marine (select Focal™ Fiber Optic Multiplexers), or by contacting a sales...

Product Selection Guide A wide variety of signal types are supported by Moog’s Focal™ multiplexers and OEO converters, per the tables below. Custom solutions provide support for additional signal formats or unique combinations of standard protocols. Application specific products may be customized to reduce size or cost, optimize packaging, extend environmental performance, and integrate more directly with other equipment. Since new products are continually added, please contact Moog for updates. Model Sensor (Voltage Output) Component (YPbPr, RGB) Model 903 - 3U Eurocard-based modular...

Model 903 Multiplexer Product Guide Model 903 Model 907 Model 912 The Focal™ Model 903 product family provides a rugged video/data multiplexer and fiber optic communication system for Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) and other industrial machines operating in harsh environments. A rack based 3U height (5.25 inch) Eurocard system with a flexible architecture that supports reconfiguration and expansion of the system to meet application specific requirements.

Model 903 Product Guide Fiber-Optic Motherboards (FMB) A Model 903 system contains one remote (subsea) FMB and one console (surface) FMB. The FMB converts electrical signals from a Eurocard backplane into a bidirectional fiber-optic telemetry link. Expansion cards (also called interface boards) can be added to the chassis for analog video, Ethernet, serial data such as RS-232 and RS-485/422, and many special signal formats for sonars, responder triggers, and other devices.

Model 903 Product Guide Chassis and Backplanes Model 903 FMBs, media converters, expansion cards and system cards are housed in a Eurocard chassis. The backplane allows for communication between the FMB and the expansion cards. The backplane can also provide power to the installed cards. All chassis are available in a variety of widths to accommodate one FMB, up to two video and four data expansion cards. Cards come in standard widths of 4 HP, 6 HP, or 8 HP, where 1 HP is 5.08 mm (0.2 inch). Chassis are also available with additional slots for media converters. Dual High Density Remote...

Model 903 Product Guide Media Converter Cards Media converter cards provide direct electrical to optical signal conversion and transmit over one or two dedicated optical fibers. A number of signal formats are supported, including ECL/PECL signals for Cypress HOTLink™ and multi-beam sonar links; high-definition digital video (SMPTE-292); and one, two, and four channels of Gigabit Ethernet.
