MD-1358/G DualFOM
Fiber Optic Modem DualFOM-II

The DualFOM and DualFOM-II
fiber optic modems are rugged, field exposed units which facilitate replacement of CX-11230 coaxial cable
assemblies with long distance Tactical Fiber Optic
Cable Assemblies (TFOCA's), and are designed to carry all standard conditioned diphase group rates from
72 kbps through 4.608 Mbps in the tactical communications
environment without any need for shelter or equipment modification.
Both versions
connect to standard CX-11230 cable on the shelter
side and standard tactical fiber optic cables on the
line side. The MD-1358/G DualFOM interfaces with the
U.S. Military standard 2-fiber TFOCA's while the DualFOM-II
interfaces with the newer *TFOCA-II® connectors. Either
will provide repeaterless transmission up to 16 kilometers
and up to 32 kilometers when used with an additional
MD-1358/G DualFOM or DualFOM-II serving as a repeater.
Both versions provide two separate and independent
channels for full duplex transmission of voice and
data signals and conform to JTC3A technical interface
specification 9109c, which ensures compatibility with
other standards compliant fiber optic equipment, including
the MD-1272/G single channel FOM.
Benefits of Fiber Over Coaxial Cable.
- Lighter weight and smaller size
for much quicker deployment.
- Higher bandwidth for increased
throughput.
- Lower loss for long distance
repeaterless communication up
to 16 kilometers
- Better quality - safe from electromagnetic
interference from
any source.
- More secure - no electromagnetic
signature.
