What do we mean by an “Active Product” ?

  A product that contains electronic or optical devices that consume electrical power to operate Examples: – – – – Copper-to-fiber “Media Converters” USB hubs, Ethernet switches and routers RF and Microwave amplifiers Digitzers, delay-lines, switches, etc.

Why Fiber Optic Media Converters?

 Why Fiber Optics?

– Reduced Weight – – Increased Distance Reduced EMI headaches  Glenair offers: – Ruggedized Mil/Aero fiber optic Media Converters – Engineering Design support
