IF Fiber 70/140 MHz Optic Link | PL7330T / PL7330R16
The PL7330T transmitter and PL7330R16 receiver deliver high-performance IF signal transmission in a compact sub-rack chassis design. The system enables stable RF performance with high input power handling and supports up to a 16db optical budget for long-distance applications.
Features & Benefits
- IF frequency range from 10–200 MHz
- Supports transmission distance beyond 45 km
- DigiRF™ management through front panel LCD and SNMP
- IMizer™ automated calibration for IMD and CNR alignment
- User-defined IMD configuration for linearity control
- Hot-swappable modules for continuous system operation
- Multiple RF and optical connector configurations
- 1550nm and CWDM variants for extended fiber reach
Basic Details
The PL7330T and PL7330R16 are built for IF applications that require modular deployment and consistent performance under demanding operating conditions. Each transmitter and receiver module includes an individual processor and can be hot-swapped within the sub-rack chassis to support subsystem uptime during servicing. For chassis integration, the associated PL7010 includes 12 active slots, one main control processor slot, and two redundant power supplies. It also operates without fans, even under full sub-rack loading and full LNB powering.
