Product Description
The Thor Fiber F - RF - 1310 - Tx - 8mW is a top - notch CATV RF over fiber transmitter operating in the 45 - 870 MHz range. It's a 1310nm, 8mW fiber optic transmitter designed for TV RF signals. This transmitter directly converts incoming RF signals in this band to optical RF, allowing all TV channels and programs to be transported over a single fiber. It's suitable for both point - to - point and point - to - multipoint applications when combined with PLC couplers and fiber optic splitters. It outputs industry - standard RFoG signals, which most other manufacturers' fiber optic RF receivers can accept. The front - panel LCD is easy to read, providing useful information and alarm data, and making configuration a breeze. It features a highly linear DFB laser with automatic adjustment circuitry and Automatic Gain Control. For extra reliability, you can opt for a second internal Power Supply Unit. Key features include an 8mW laser optics for an optical output power of at least +5 dBm, temperature - controlled optics for stable power output, a broadband RF response for full TV RF lineup transport, and the ability to handle any channels in the 45 - 870 MHz range. Technical specs: Laser Power is 8mW, Optical Power is > +6 dBm, Fiber Connector is SC/APC, RF Input Power is 19 - 21 dBmV, RF Connector is Type - F 75 Ohm, Power Input is 120 - 240 VAC, Power Rating is 50W, Dimensions are 19 x 10 x 1.75 IN, Temperature range is - 5 - 65 C, and it comes with an Optical Transmitter, US Power Cable, and User Manual.
Using the Thor Fiber CATV RF over fiber transmitter is straightforward. First, connect the RF input using the Type - F 75 Ohm connector, making sure the input power is within the 19 - 21 dBmV range. Then, connect the fiber using the SC/APC connector. Plug the power cable into a 120 - 240 VAC power source. The front - panel LCD will show you important information and alarm data. For point - to - multipoint applications, you can connect it with PLC couplers and fiber optic splitters. When it comes to maintenance, keep the device in a temperature - controlled environment between - 5 and 65 C. Check the power supply regularly, especially if you've opted for the second internal Power Supply Unit. If the device shows any error messages on the LCD, refer to the user manual for troubleshooting. Make sure to handle the fiber connector with care to avoid damage, and keep the device clean from dust and debris.
