2808R-SFSP CATV/VSB AM Receiver, 1350/1550 nm

The Force CATV Model 2808 110 Channel Private Network Solution (PNS)/Professional Distribution Solution (PDS) VSB/AM Fiber Optic Receiver, working with Model 2804 PDS or 2805 PNS transmitter, provides CATV distribution headend operators with an extensive array of features that offer a low-cost solution to increase system performance. The unit provides an RF output of +28 dBmV, allowing multiple RF splits without the use of an external RF amplifier. The Model 2808 is equipped with a manual gain control that allows the user to adjust the RF output level for optimum performance. Additionally, the receiver's ability to operate over a wide optical input range of -8 to +4.5 dBm allows for a variety of system designs without degrading performance. The Model 2808 can transport up to 110 CATV channels using the entire high-frequency bandwidth, or alternatively, it can transport up to 80 channels of standard CATV signals while utilizing the remaining high-frequency bandwidth to transport 30 digital QAM channels. The receiver includes a universal AC power supply, freeing the user from a bulky wall-mount AC adapter. The streamline design of the Model 2808 offers the flexibility and performance demanded by today’s broadband professional. Wide bandwidth of 40 to 860 MHz accommodates up to 110 channels on all models. Provides excellent picture quality with a CNR up to 54.5 dB, CSO of -63, and CTB of -66 dBm. RF Output up to +28 dBmV allows a greater number of drops or splits. Wide optical input range of -8 dBm to +4.5 dBm permits the use of a lower power transmitter, reducing system cost. Built-in, universal AC power supply frees system user from bulky wall-mount AC adapters.
