INTRODUCTION
The Olson Technology OTOT-1000 is a higher performance indoor wideband laser transmitter with an RF passband
of 48 to 1,000MHz. The OTOT-1000 also offers enhanced CATV performance. These transmitters are intended for
indoor applications. They combine the transmitter and universal AC power supply in one compact housing that has a
footprint of 7.5" x 5.5" x 1.6". The optical output power and bandwidth of each transmitter is as follows:
OTOT-1000-3
+3dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-6
+6dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-8
+8dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-9
+9dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-10
+10dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-12
+12dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-13
+13dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-14
+14dBm, 48-1,000MHz
OTOT-1000-15
+15dBm, 48-1,000MHz
Each transmitter has a universal power supply and will operate from 90 to 240V
AC
at 50 or 60 Hz and consumes about
10 Watts.
The OTOT-1000 is an ideal forward signal source for the OTPN-1000 High Sensitivity Indoor Node and will allow
for an optical path loss of 21 dB or more. Test points are provided for laser output power and current to allow for
historical review of operating parameters. An RF test point is provided to allow proper setup and for historical review.
Positive cooling is provided by means of a small, high-MTBF fan, which may be replaced in the field without interrupting
the operation of the unit.
The OTOT-1000 has flanges on the bottom to allow mounting it to a flat surface. The available OTLL-RMKIT-1 will
allow mounting up to three of these units in a standard 19" rack.
INSTALLATION / ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
The OTOT-1000 transmitters are specified to operate from -10°C to +55°C. They usually do not require an air-
conditioned environment. They should be mounted in an adequately ventilated area. Like all electronic equipment, it
will generally have a longer life span if it is not operated at the upper limit of the temperature range. Installation in wet
areas or areas of extremely high humidity should be avoided. Extremely dirty or dusty areas should be avoided if
possible. Objects or debris should not be allowed to block the openings in the housing or the fan. The unit should not
be installed in areas that are accessible to children.
The OTOT-1000 may be installed and operated in any position on a flat surface. The unit has four slots in the bottom
plate to accommodate mounting hardware. If mounting requires a wood screw, use #6 or #8 (maximum) pan-head
sheet metal screws. These are commonly available at hardware stores. If mounting with a machine screw (to tapped
holes), use 6-32 pan-head screws.
