OZ600, RF over Fiber

Point-to-point configurations

• Using existing fibers in building
• Electrical isolation from lightning strikes
• Long distances.

Daisy chain configurations

• Extending the range to tens of kilometers
• Option to bypass or cover intrinsicallysafe areas
• Applications include subway, underground mine and other long tunnels.

Star configurations

• Distributing the single point GNSS signal e.g. to timing instrumentation in campus or factory area.

RF over Fiber Components and Systems

• Satellite Communication (commercial and military)
• GPS signal distribution
• DAS (Distributed Antenna System) 
• Wi-Fi and Cellular transport
• Remote Base Station connection

OZ600 is a low-cost broadband (3GHz) RF over Fiber or analog over fiber transceiver. A pair of OZ600 transceivers will create a two-way bidirectional RF to Optical and Optical to RF link. OZ600 can also be configured as individual linear (analog) Transmitter (Tx) or Receiver (Rx) units, if necessary. OZ600 is an excellent alternative to using coaxial cable systems and offers significant improvements in the transport of high frequency RF signals in their native format reliably across a broad range of frequencies. It has low Noise Figure (NF) and high Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR), with operational frequencies from 47 MHz to 3.0 GHz, or more.

The OZ600 is designed as a compact RFoF plug and play device that is easily integrated into your existing platform. It has a very low failure rate with an MTTF at room temperature of 20 years. Virtually any analog RF signal which falls within its bandwidth range can be transported over fiber optic cable using the OZ600 modules. Typical applications in which the OZ600 may be utilized include, but are not limited to, IF Satcom Band, L Band, GPS, PCS Cellular, UHF and VHF signal distribution over fiber and other custom RF over Fiber solutions.
