Optical Zonu Corporation RF Receiver, Transmitter, and Transceiver Finished Units A13-Z816-D47-AS-SL

The A13-Z816-D47-AS-SL is a high-performance RF over Fiber (RFoF) optical transceiver designed for applications requiring a wide bandwidth of 30 MHz to 6.0 GHz. It operates within a temperature range of -20¬8C to +75¬8C and has a compact size of approximately 3 x 5 x 1.25 inches, weighing ¬æ pound. The device supports a DC input range of +9V to +30V and features automatic optical power control for optimal performance. This transceiver can be configured as either a transmitter or receiver and is housed in a rugged, dust-tight metal casing. It offers high spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) and is suitable for various applications, including satellite communications, cellular backhaul, and GPS distribution. The standard optical connector is SC/APC, with an optional FC/APC for low back reflection applications. The RF interface utilizes a 50 Ohm SMA connector, and additional monitoring and alarm functions are accessible via a DB9 connector. The A13-Z816-D47-AS-SL is particularly advantageous for installations requiring immunity from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and lightning, making it a reliable alternative to traditional coaxial cable systems. Its capabilities in handling RF signals in their native format across a broad frequency range make it a strong candidate for engineers looking to implement RF over fiber solutions.
