{}#yiv6023612781 Passive optical muxing is just a cascade of splitters with the
3dB per split. So 8:1 passive mux is 2*2*2 so 9 dB theoretically, 11 or so in
real life. From: Paul McCall Sent: Friday, April 14, 2017 4:31 PMTo:

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Backhauling fiber 80 miles at 10Gig Not really. A mux is
a mux. Just pay attention to insertion loss numbers to make sure you still have
the optical budget you need.

now than to figure out how to transition 10G of traffic elsewhere later when
you need to take the link down to put a mux in? :-p

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.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Backhauling fiber 80 miles at 10Gig This looks like it
supports 40 channels, I really just need one (for now), but if that is part of
the HW config needed, 8 channel would be more than sufficient. Paul

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