Positioning
Breakout
bers are used to exibly allocate bandwidth resources to routers. They
cooperate with a breakout optical module to convert an MPO interface into
multiple LC interfaces to facilitate
ber layout.
Usage Scenario
The breakout function applies to a scenario where bandwidth resources are
unevenly allocated between two routers at
dierent levels. In comparison with
breakout boxes, breakout bers implement the following functions:
● Loosen ber layout.
● Extend the cabling distance.
Fiber Structure
To insert a breakout optical module (multimode and short transmission distance)
into a port, use an MPO-LC
ber to directly connect the optical module.
