The QAMnet iRCVR-4 series optical receivers are versatile, low cost and compact for use in HFC, FTTH and deep fiber applications.
Product Overview
The QAMnet iRCVR-4 series optical receivers are versatile, low cost and compact for use in HFC, FTTH and deep fiber applications. The iRCVR-4 uses a broadband PIN diode and a low distortion RF amplifier circuit to deliver a sufficient level of CNR, while maintaining optimal CSO and CTB distortion specifications.
Designed to operate with very low input level, iRCVR-4 provides high optical gain. At -8 dBm of input level (OMI index of 3.5%), iRVCR-4 can still provide 49 dB of CNR and RF output level of 23.7 dBmV. With compact dimensions and light weight housing, iRCVR-4 can be utilized in almost any space requirement. The operating temperature range of iRCVR-4 is from -20°C to +50°C.
