Virtual optical converters

SAT-IF Receiver Nodes for TWIN, QUAD and QUATTRO use signal

The virtual converter receives an optical signal via a passive optical network (PON) from the optical LNB. It then performs a de-stacking frequency conversion and outputs two or four universal lines for driving two or four individual set top boxes (TWIN and QUAD version).

A QUATTRO version presents the four individual polarities on separate coax outputs and are suited to drive a normal multi switch system.

This product effectively eliminates the limitations on cable lengths and number of users.

The frequency stacking and de-stacking technology, in combination with modern laser and fibre optic technology, has made it viable to send the high-frequency IF satellite signals over a substantially longer distance than ever possible in the past.

The Virtual converters will accept an optical link budget from the optical LNB transmitter (equivalent to splitting it 32 ways) and still have capacity for distances of more than 5-10 km! Using this system you can install multi switch installations upto 32 times larger than using traditional coax technology.

It also means you can feed upto 32 x 4 = 128 set top boxes via fibre optic cables.
