PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
1. Product Description
The MPRFA/B MAXNET II module is an RF Detector A/B Switch, which provides redundancy for use of multiple RF Amplifiers
or RF Sources. It has an integrated 2-way splitter for easy realisation of redundancy scenarios (see Application Examples –
3.5.). The integrated splitter allows for maximized rack space saving and comfortable cable/signal management.
The MPRFA/B RF Detector switch module is dual-width, taking up two slots in the Active MAXNET II Chassis and it is
powered through a hot-swapping backplane in the Active MAXNET II Chassis. An appropriate MAXNET II Power
Supply in the Active MAXNET II Chassis powers these modules. The MPRFA/B module features the standard
MAXNET II functionality including high-density packaging through the use of MCX coaxial cable connectors in conjunction
with Mini RG-59 Type coaxial cable. Also featured are: front access alarm/status LED indicators, a -20 dB test point
and the capability of module status monitoring through SNMP based Managers. The MAXNET II SNMP interface is
HMS compliant.
