Multi-Compartment Fiber Ring Interconnect
Bidirectional fiber rings across compartments/portals with multi-SFP managed switches.
1. Scenario
Long tunnels with many portals need HA backhaul for CCTV and automation.
2. Challenges
Single fiber cuts hurt; isolate compartments logically; size ring bandwidth to camera counts.
3. Architecture
Portal/crossing cabinets use 8GE+4/8SFP managed switches for dual-path rings; copper for cameras and PLC gateways.
4. Recommended Leagrid LGS2000 products
- LGS2000-8GE4GF-M: Managed Gigabit switch: 8×GE copper + 4×GE SFP for multi-direction fiber rings and multi-camera uplinks.
- LGS2000-8GE8GF-M: Managed Gigabit switch: 8×GE copper + 8×GE SFP for dense fiber and video/multi-ring interconnect.
5. Deployment notes
Co-test ring with automation vendors; VLAN per compartment; independent fire/egress paths; schedule fiber-cut drills.
