Optical LNB

Triax TOL32 Optical LNB

The Triax TOL32 Optical LNB is a high quality, high performance universal LNB.  In addition to excellent LNB performance it provides a 1310 nm wideband optical output where all four satellite polarities are stacked into one frequency range (950-5450 MHz).

Using modern laser technology this frequency range can be transmitted via a single laser over a very large distance, at a link budget that can sustain splitting into 32 ways. This allows a system setup that can drive a fairly large Passive Optical Network (PON) before the signal is finally fed into a number of virtual converters for traditional coax distribution.

The stacking/de-stacking technology provides a very cost efficient solution as a single laser carries the full four satellite polarities in one optical cable. This is in contrast to traditional fibre optical solutions that require one laser per polarity and creates a substantial cost saving without compromising satellite signals, range or quality. This means that not only is the investment into fibre optical cables kept to an absolute minimum but the full PON benefits from the same savings.

The Optical LNB is DC power sourced via a coax cable and an F-connector.

Power supply is included in the kit. A high-quality FC/PC type fibre optical connector is used for optimum outdoor performance.
