86C Series – POTS Telephone

The American Fibertek 86C Series transmits and receives standard POTS telephone signals on one optical fiber. The singlemode models utilize AM/FSK transmission while multimode option use SM/FDM transmission. 

This system is designed to be completely transparent to all telephony signals including ring, off-hook, hook-switch flash and forward disconnect. Products require no field adjustments at installation or additional maintenance thereafter. Diagnostic Indicators provide a quick visual indication of system status. 

The 86C-SL Series are ordered as stand-alone modules or rack cards that are mounted in the American Fibertek Card Cage: SR-50/5.

The MT and RT supports up to 1000 feet of 24 AWG wire from the fiber optic unit to the telephone handset. Other 86C series product configurations include 2 fiber units at 850 or 1300nm and an MX or RX series “talk down” (order wire) phone system. Contact the AFI for details.
