Dual Fiber Transceivers
The benefits and overall savings on a single strand (simplex) versusdual strand (duplex) fiber implementation can be considerable.Considerations include not only the cost of fiber optic cabling itself,but also the labor and material involved in terminating the endpoints,simplex versus duplex patch cords, cross-connect rack space, reducedpoints of failure, and other direct and indirect costs. This technologycan also defer the need to install new fiber to support unexpectedgrowth requirements.
