RFOptic Launches RFoF Ultra Series
In a strategic move to cater to the growing demands for high-frequency communications, RFOptic has unveiled its latest innovation, the RFoF Ultra product series. This series is specifically designed for RF over Fiber (RFoF) applications and addresses the needs of industries operating within the 12GHz and above frequency range. The launch is particularly significant for customers engaged in Electronic Warfare applications, where reliable and effective coax replacement is a necessity.
Comprehensive Capabilities at High Frequencies
RFOptic's RFoF Ultra series operates efficiently across a frequency spectrum from 100MHz up to 18GHz. The new series builds upon the foundation laid by the RFoF programmable series, maintaining an incredibly compact design that is essential for modern telecommunications infrastructure. The RFoF Ultra solution has been crafted to offer a commendable price-performance ratio, making it an alluring choice for both standalone setups and subsystem configurations. This is crucial for applications where size, weight, and power consumption are critical factors in operational efficiency.
Dr. Avner Sharon, the CEO of RFOptic, expressed the company’s commitment to innovation: "At the request of our customers, we have developed our new RFoF Ultra product line for frequencies up to 18GHz. This series serves as a cost-effective alternative to our standard RF over Fiber High SFDR models, delivering superior performance without compromising on quality."
Enhanced Features for Today's Network Demands
The RFoF Ultra series is designed to support 5G testing at frequencies starting from 7.1GHz. It ensures high dynamic range performance, thus offering better Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR) and Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) handling, vital for managing 5G and future 6G cellular traffic. The compact modules are suited for various configurations, such as 2U high-density subsystems, enabling organizations to house up to 40 transmitters/receivers or 20 half bidirectional modules, significantly improving space management.
Versatility remains a key feature of the RFoF Ultra series, allowing installation within 1U 19-inch subsystems, where 8 modules can efficiently coexist in a single chassis. Key specifications include:
- - Frequency Range: 10MHz to 18GHz
- - Compact Dimensions: Optimized for space-saving installations
- - Control Interface: USB-C for easy monitoring and control
- - Power Efficiency: Designed for low power consumption
- - Operating Wavelengths: 1550nm and 1310 nm
- - Temperature Resilience: Functional within a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C
- - Amplifier Options: Potential for integration with pre- and post-amplifiers.
