This system allows intercon-nection of electronic equipment found in complex, basically industrial installationsthrough one single network, irrespective of the distances to be bridged.Today, OTN is probably the most powerful multiplexer for large, private environmentswith mixed communication needs such as railways, metros, light rails, mines, airports,pipelines, and so on.OTN is exactly what its name implies:– OPENIt can handle nearly all existing physical interface standards, but also very spe-cific communication protocols in special environments via its interface cards.– TRANSPORTIt carries different types of information (such as voice, data, LAN, and video)completely transparently throughout the network, and does so with high availabil-ity.– NETWORKIt is based on fibre optic technology in a future-proof network infrastructure,spanning any distance.An OTN network is built up with nodes that are interconnected by a dual fibre opticring. A network consists of up to 250 nodes.Each node is mounted in a 19" rack and is equipped with network cards, interfacecards, and one or more power supply modules. The network cards provide communi-cation between the optical rings and the interface cards.On both rings, consecutive TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) frames circulate in oppo-site directions. These frames provide communication between the nodes.Fig. 38 OTN network nodeThe OTN system offers a capacity of 150 Mbps (OTN-150), 600 Mbps (OTN-600) and2.5 Gbps (OTN-2500). It can be deployed in networks covering distances from a fewhundred meters up to 2000 km. The distance between two consecutive OTN nodes inthe network depends on the fibre characteristics and the type of optical transceiversused (from 2 km with multimode fibre up to 95 km with G.652/G.653 fibre).
