GX2-DM1000B10/CH**
1 GHz DWDM Narrowcast Transmitter
With 40 ITU wavelengths available, the GX2-DM1000B10/CH** transmitter
provides the optimal solution for targeted services delivery for links
with limited fiber count.
The OmniStar GX2-DM1000B10/CH** Dense
Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM)
narrowcast transmitter is specially designed
for targeted services delivery loaded between 47
MHz to 1 GHz. It uses a high-performance, directly
modulated, DFB laser that enables the transmitter to
be used for links up to 100 km. An integrated PIN
attenuator enables operators to adjust the RF for
optimal performance. By combining these DWDM
transmitters with Motorola's optical amplifiers
(EDFAs), multiplexers, and demultiplexers,
broadband operators can deploy a scalable, future-
proof DWDM targeted services network. With 40
ITU wavelengths available, many independent
signals can be combined and transported through a
single fiber. With the proper system design, hubs
can be made totally passive, minimizing facilities and
maintenance requirements. Routing and provisioning
can be enabled to occur at the headend.
To minimize valuable headend space, the compact,
energy-efficient design enables the 4 RU OmniStar
GX2 housing to hold 16 plug-and-play transmitter
modules. Enhanced with PowerPC
®
technology by
Motorola, the GX2-DM1000B series of transmitters
introduces a new-found intelligence to traditional
headend equipment. Unique embedded features,
such as hot-swappable modules with Quick-Swap
Module Configuration, maximize in-service time by
eliminating the need for manual configuration.
