Model 2804 110 Channel CATV
Professional Distribution System (PDS) transmitter is part of a robust system for
transferring up to 110 channels of VSB/AM modulated signals over a single-
mode optical fiber. The system is also suitable for transferring 80 CATV chan-
nels along with 30 digital QAM channels in the upper frequency range. The
Model 2804 provides 40-860 MHz of usable bandwidth for video signals
stacked at 6 MHz intervals. A low loss single-mode fiber allows full channel
loading to beyond 20 km while maintaining a good carrier-to-noise ratio. A key
power lock ensures the transmitter cannot be accidentally turned off, and a blue
7-segment LED readout allows the user to monitor a number of system para-
meters. A -20 dB RF test point on the front panel provides a convenient avenue
for installing, commissioning, and troubleshooting the transmitter. The Model
2804 may be used with the Model 2807 mini-node receiver for use in return
path and multiple splitter applications or with the Model 2808 receiver for basic
110 channel CATV transmission. In all cases, the link provides excellent perfor-
mance for many demanding applications such as broadband LANs, distance
learning, and multiple data services.
