Summary

Foxcom Gold GL7130 RF Optical Link 10MHz Reference Signal, 4dB Optical Budget

Foxcom's Sat-Light/Gold 10MHz Reference Signal Link offers a high performance, cost effective alternative to conventional coaxial-cabled systems. The Gold 10MHz Reference Signal optical link is designed for to meet the needs of a wide range of Satellite and professional VSAT applications. Foxcom’s high dynamic range DFB laser delivers exceptional signal quality for the most demanding applications.

The new Gold series is compatible with first generation Sat-Light 7000 Series platform. The Gold Series support L-Band, 70/140MHz IF, Wide Band (10-2200 MHz), 10MHz Reference, Redundancy, M & C, SNMP, Ethernet, and Serial Data Communication.

The link consists of a high dynamic range optical transmitter, which converts incoming 10 MHz reference signals into optics, and an optical receiver that re-converts the optical signal back into RF. Inherently low phase is achieved by direct modulation of the laser diode.
