For drone, demote antenna & 5G applications
Our multilink solutions find applications in numerous markets including satellite, remote antenna, antenna arrays, signal monitoring, and defense applications. These solutions support RFoF links that service multiple independent communication channels with different frequencies and bandwidths. Specialized ultra-stable solutions are the preferred connectivity method for VLB radio-telescope applications where a mix of transmitters and receivers service different frequency bands. Some multilink solutions include RFoF link redundancy with automatic handover upon failure. Additional features such as Ethernet over fiber (IFL), Gigabit ethernet channels, TTL over fiber, Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM), Optical distribution or aggregation of signals. Such solution may include optical and RF amplifiers, multiplexers, combiners, switches and splitters. Specialized systems offer matched time and phase among multiple RFoF links as well as phase monitoring. RFOptic’s offers numerous enclosures which are selected according to volume, number of interfaces RF or optical, environmental conditions, maintenance parameters and customer needs. All RFOptic RF over Fiber subsystem solutions can be managed/monitored locally (USB) with a free app or remotely over an Ethernet connection using RFOptic’s HTML/SNMP/REST Management & Control webserver.

ENCLOSURE OPTIONS FOR MULTILINK SOLUTIONS
1UR and 2UR 19” rack mountable indoor enclosures
Features include 4 and 8 hot-swappable RFoF module bays. These enclosures are compatible with RFoF programmable or RFoF Ultra series modules as well as RFoF HSFDR modules, one module per bay. This enclosure is reconfigurable by the customer, and the desired types of modules or faulty modules can be replaced easily. Ethernet, IFL and TTL channels if present occupy a non-swappable bay each.

This enclosure is reconfigurable by the customer, and the desired types of modules or faulty modules can be replaced easily. Ethernet, IFL and TTL channels if present occupy a non-swappable bay each.
Outdoor enclosures
RFOptic offers several sizes of outdoor enclosures all fitted with an optical MPO connector. These include AC and DC powered varieties of SOD – Small outdoor enclosure with 4 RF ports, BOD – big outdoor enclosure with up to 8 RF ports and the EBOD enclosure with up to 10 RF ports.
2UHD 19” rack mountable enclosures
These enclosures feature 5 drawer bays, each of which can contain up to 8 unidirectional links or 4 bidirectional terminals using any RFoF programmable and RFoF Ultra modules. Such enclosures are typically used where massive numbers of wideband RFoF links are required such as for 5G testing facilities. Up to 40 transmitters and/or receivers or 20 bidirectional terminals can be supported by a one such enclosure.
