L-Band Long Distance Up And Down Links | PL7220 / PL7230
Global Foxcom’s Platinum L-Band products are designed to meet the increasing demand for modularity and high-performance in a small form factor for superior long-distance transmission. The link performs at full capability up to 100Km. High RF input power and wide dynamic range make the link suitable for both Uplink and Downlink applications.
Utilizing Global Foxcom’s DigiRF technology, the user has full control of all important functions for setup, operation, and analysis via the front panel LCD or via the associated sub-rack SNMP capability.
In addition, IMizer, an automated adjustable link calibration embedded system enables the user to align the RF links IMD/CNR to specific linearity performances without a two-tone test. Select the desired IMD for the optical transmitter either locally or remotely, IMizer automatically adjusts the laser drive to meet the IMD requirements.
Each low profile individual transmitter or receiver can be “hot swapped” in the sub-rack chassis maintaining a best subsystem uptime capability. Each module contains an individual processor to maximize specification performance at all times under demanding user applications.
The Platinum transmitter and receiver are designed for sub-rack chassis mounting. The associated Platinum chassis has 12 active slots, one main control processor (MCP) slot and two redundant power supplies. No fans are required even under full sub-rack loading and full LNB powering.
