Summary

Foxcom Platinum PL7130T1550 / PL7130R4, 10MHz Reference RF Link High Power Input, 4 dB Optical Budget

Foxcom’s Platinum 10 MHz card is designed to meet the increasing demand for modularity and high-performance in a small form factor for superior long-distance transmission. With high RF input power and wide dynamic range, the link is designed to provide full specification service up to a full 4 dB optical budget with thePL7130R4 receiver.  Utilizing Foxcom’s DigiRF technology, the user has full control of all important functions for setup, operation, and analysis via the front panel LCD or via the associated subrack SNMP capability.

Each low profile individual transmitter or receiver can be “hot swapped” in the chassis maintaining a best subsystem uptime capability. Each module contains an individual processor to maximize specification performance at all times under demanding user applications.

The PL7130T1550 transmitter and PL7130R4 receiver are designed for subrack chassis mounting. The associated Platinum chassis, model PL7010, has 12 active slots, one main control processor (MCP) slot and two redundant power supplies. No fans are required.
