Figure 1-8. Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexer Application
A Free Space Optics (FSO) system (that meets the Digivance system data rate performance and
BER requirements) may be used in applications where it is desirable or necessary to bridge an
open span and where it is impractical to lay a fiber optic cable. One FSO transceiver unit may be
mounted on the HU side of the open span and the other FSO transceiver unit may be mounted
on the RU side of the open span. A system diagram of an FSO application is shown in
Figure 1-9. FSO systems are available from various equipment manufacturers.

3.2 Control and Monitoring Software
The Digivance EMS software supports control and monitoring functions for both the local and
remote service interfaces. The EMS software is stored on a CD-ROM which is included with the
EMS software package. Software installation consists of copying the software files from the
CD-ROM to a designated directory on the hard-drive of the EMS computer.
