Compact Clam Shell Outdoor Weather Proof Fiber Optic Receiver For CATV 45-1000Mhz
The Thor Fiber RF fiber transport systems are made to easily support the transport and distribution of CATV RF signals over single mode fiber optic cable. This F-NODE-XX is used as an outdoor receiver in a special clam shell-style weather-resistant enclosure for easy drop locations outside of a building. Relying on the incoming signal from the Thor Fiber RF Transmitter of your choice, this CATV mini receiver is used as a low-cost endpoint when rack equipment is not needed or when conditions require a professional installer to mount the unit on the side or roof of a building. This particular model is made for a single mode fiber input, has a test node inside for RF output, and on the opposite side has two RF F-Type connectors that you can easily connect your RF cable to for easy output drive to your headend to RF architecture.
Due to its easy, compact design, it is powerful enough to drive the RF signal to numerous endpoints with its inherent dual-output design. The F-NODE-XX requires single mode fiber like all RF devices and utilizes the industry standard SC/APC fiber connector. SC/APC is a staple of RF distribution over fiber to limit reflections and create a solid point-to-point connection. Also included is AGC (automatic gain control) and the highest degree of processing, creating a very powerful and useful tool for anyone who necessitates a great receiver that can be used in any installation.
IMPORTANT NOTE*** (It is very important to interface our unit with SC/APC - Angle Polished Connector to avoid any light reflections.)
If your fiber is terminated with the SC, ST, FC/PC flat connector, you need to use an optical jumper from PC type to SC/APC for proper conversion.
PIN photoelectric converter with high response.
Optimized circuit design, SMT process production, signal path, smooth photoelectric signal transmission.
Good linear RF attenuation and equalization, and high accuracy.
GaAs amplifier, power double output, high gain, and low distortion.
Optimized AGC performance; when the input power range is -9~+2dBm,
Optical Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
Able to receive optical signals in either 1310nm or 1550nm bands.
Power supply included, optical connector SC/APC
