Today's modern networks store and carry highly-sensitive and classified data. To prevent unauthorized access and external infiltration through a network, many of these networks are upgrading to a unidirectional format, whereby information travels in one direction across a path, connecting a low security to a high secuirty network. This method of data transport ensures that specific information in a network is only accessible by authorized users.
The unidirectional media converters are modified to work in pairs, where one of the unit's transmit fiber is disabled and the other's receive fiber is disabled. The installation requires specific equipment, such as a Data Diode, somewhere in the fiber connection, to support one way flow of information. The unidirectional media converters are available in a compact form factor, modular, or available for instation in an open PCI slot of a PC.
