CHAPTER 2: Introduction
MultiMode FOMs are fiberoptic short-range modems with a special money-
saving edge. Many other fiberoptic modems can’t transmit and receive data
through the same port, so they use cables with two fibers. MultiMode FOMs
communicate with each other over a much less expensive single-fiber cable,
across distances of as much as 5 km (3.1 miles).
2.1 Features
• Synchronous or asynchronous operation
• Communicates point-to-point over a single optical fiber
• Local and remote test modes
• Asynchronous data rates up to 38.4 Kbps
• Synchronous data rates up to 256 Kbps
• Distances up to 2.5 kilometers (1.5 miles) at any speed
• Distances up to 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) at speeds of 64 Kbps or less
• Internal or external clocking
• Support for transparent hardware, or local hardware, or local software
flow control
• Available with ST®or SMA connectors
• Tri-state front-panel LED indicators

MULTIMODE FOMS -ST AND -SMA
2.2 Description
The MultiMode FOM is a fiberoptic short-range modem for point-to-point
RS-232 communication over a single 62.5-µm fiber, such as one of those
bundled into our bulk multifiber cables EFN1004 and EFN1006. The FOM
supports synchronous data rates up to 256 Kbps, and asynchronous data rates
up to 38.4 Kbps. It can also support transparent hardware flow control or
local flow control; in the local setting, it automatically adapts to either
hardware or software flow control. Synchronous timing can be set for
internal or external (from attached RS-232 device) clock.
The MultiMode FOM features extended-data-rate circuitry that allows for
single-fiber distances between 1.5 and 3.1 miles (2.5 and 5 km). Depending
on which model you have, you can connect optical cable with ST or SMA
connectors to the FOM. The MultiMode FOM encodes your data signals
using 3B4B modulation, then converts them to an 880-nm optical signal.
The MultiMode FOM features two test modes: local and remote loopback.
You can activate either of these tests with the FOM’s front-panel toggle switch.
The local loopback test is used to evaluate the DTE-to-modem connection.
The remote loopback test is used to evaluate the condition of the connection
between the modems.

CHAPTER 3: Configuration
With the MultiMode FOM’s external DIP switch, you can configure the unit
for many different combinations of data rates and clocking methods for
synchronous or asynchronous applications. (Since the FOM has no internal
jumpers or other internal controls, you don’t have to open the unit’s case to
configure the unit.) Figures 3-1 and 3-2 below and Table 3-1 on the next page
show the location of the switch and the switch positions’ identities, settings,
and functions.

MULTIMODE FOMS -ST AND -SMA
This section provides detailed information about the function of each
DIP switch position, and lists all possible settings. Use this section as a
configuration guide for applications where the FOM’s default settings
would not provide correct results. (Position 1 is reserved for future use.)
Positions 2 though 5: Data Rate (Sync. Mode)
Switches 2 through 5 determine two configuration parameters: synchronous
or asynchronous data rate and the mode of synchronization (Sync. Mode)
between two FOMs. Here’s how the packet-spacing option works: The “2X”
setting doubles the space between data packets compared to the “1X” setting,
so that each packet is more easily distinguishable from those before and after
it. This offsets some of the effects of signal degradation over distance, and
allows communication over as much as 5 km (3.1 miles) as opposed to the
“1X” setting’s limit of 2.5 km (1.5 miles). Table 3-2 at the top of the next
page shows every possible setting for these four switch positions.
Position 6: Reset
You can use position 6 to reset the MultiMode FOM without powering down
the unit. Move position 6 to ON to put the FOM in “reset conditon,” then
move position 6 back to OFF (the default setting) to put the FOM back in
“operating condition” (resume normal operation). Don’t leave position 6
ON: the FOM will not work properly unless this switch position is OFF.

Position 7: Handshake Mode
Use position 7 to set the type of flow control. (This switch position must be
moved to the same setting on both FOMs.) If position 7 is set to ON (the
default setting), the Multimode FOMs perform transparent hardware flow
control by passing the RTS/CTS and DTR/DSR signal pairs from the
attached DTEs across the modem link. In this setting, when one FOM drops
the RS-232 “RTS” signal, the other FOM drops the “CTS” signal, and when
one FOM drops the “DTR” signal, the other drops the “DSR” signal.
If position 7 is set to OFF (the “standard modem” setting), each FOM
independently performs flow control between itself and the local DTE,
automatically adapting to either hardware (RTS/CTS) or software
(X-ON/ X-OFF) flow control.
Position 8: Clock Source
Use position 8 to set the clock source. The MultiMode FOM works from an
internal clock if position 8 is set to OFF (the default setting) and provides this
clock signal on RS-232 Pin 15. The FOM receives an external clock from the
attached RS-232 device on RS-232 Pin 24 if position 8 is set to ON.
