VSAT
VSAT Transceiver
Transports the frequency range of
950 - 2150 MHz over single-mode optical
fiber as a standard feature.
1310 nm, 50 or 75 Ohm operation
in a 1RU chassis-mount configuration.
Front panel MGC allows the RF gain
to be adjusted by the user.
Transports a 5-10 MHz reference clock
output to allow the user to synchronize
VSAT with the block up converter.
Extended temperature range.
Remote unit has the option to be mounted
in a NEMA weatherproof enclosure for
outdoor installation.
Model 3040 VSAT Link
The Model 3040 VSAT Fiber Optic Transceiver provides an economical
solution for transporting 50 Ohm RF signals for numerous VSAT
distribution applications. The system utilizes a cost-effective coax
cabling configuration to distribute the RF signals from the dish to the
transmitter and from the receiver to the headend. The single-mode
optical fiber between the VSAT transceivers allow transmission
distances to 12 km at 1310 nm. The unit has a manual gain control
adjustment on the front panel that allows the user to optimize the RF
gain. Indicator LEDs allow for a quick assessment of the link’s
operational status. The VSAT transceiver provides for bidirectional
transmission of the entire L-Band spectrum and transmission of a 5-10
MHz clock to synchronize the user's block up converter in a simplified,
flexible installation environment at one of the lowest costs found in
today’s market.
