Optical Interface Module (OIM)
Overview
The Optical Interface Module (OIM) provides standard SDH STM-1
optical trunking, to connect to different Network nodes. Apart from
data transmission between different nodes, this Module also provides
SDH performance monitoring and fault reporting.
Features
And
Benefits
Panel LEDS indicate status, faults, alarms, and network connection
STM-1 optical Interface complies with ITU-T G.957 standards
Timing Recovery circuit, with ultra-low jitter
Insertion and monitoring of STM-1 Overhead Byte
Provides 1+1 protection switching
Protection switch mechanisms can be setup based on the
performance threshold value of the optical interface. Its switch
threshold (such as BER) can be either selected by the User, or
setup internally. In the event of protection switch failure, an alarm
warning will be shown.
Alarm and fault monitoring and reporting
Provides Digital cross-connect functions for all STM-1 time slots
Synchronous clock timing for Main Power Modules
Use of non-volatile memory devices to store performance data
Function

Application
OIM is used for trunk interface and is similar to the functions provided
by SM1, except the optical transceiver is fasten and not replaceable in
the field.
