Abstract

Abstract Translated from German Ein Erweiterungsnetzwerk zur Erhöhung der Anzahl von Teilnehmeranschlüssen an ein passives optisches Bus­system mit m Gruppen (G₁...G m ) zu je m optischen Mischern (M₁...M m ). Die je Teilnehmer (Tln) individuell vorgesehenen Licht­sender (S₁...S n ) sind mit den ebenfalls individuell je Teilnehmer (Tln) vorgesehenen Lichtempfängern (E₁...E n ) über jeweils nur einen der Mischer nach Art eines vermaschten Netzes miteinander verbunden, so daß in dem optischen Pfad die Dämpfung nur eines Mischers eingefügt ist. An expansion network to increase the number of subscriber connections to a passive optical bus system with m groups (G₁ ... G m ) to m optical mixers (M₁ ... M m ). The individually provided light transmitter (S₁ ... S n ) for each participant (Tln) are connected to the light receivers (E₁ ... E n ) also provided individually for each participant (Tln) via only one of the mixers in the manner of a meshed network , so that the attenuation of only one mixer is inserted in the optical path.
