Author :
Miller, Michael B. ; Lewis, Norris E.
Abstract :
Measured performance data for linear fiber-optic data bus configurations is presented. Requirements and measurements for the individual data bus components including fiber-optic couplers, transmitters, and receivers are given, including environmental performance. Demonstrated performance for several linear data bus configurations with up to 69 nodes and data rates up to 50 Mb/s are presented
