ViaLite – Experts in RF over Fiber

ViaLite has launched a new C-Band RF over fiber link, covering 3.4 – 7.1 GHz. The link is suitable for Satcom, Broadcast, Weather Radar, Telemetry and Defense applications. It is available as a rack chassis card or as a new purple OEM module. Using C-Band negates the need for IF down conversion. Through reducing the number of components needed, the C-Band link gives reduced system costs and improved reliability. The OEM module has also been designed to use minimal power, resulting in lower running costs and total cost of ownership.

The new ViaLiteHD GPS Splitter is designed to minimize rack space. The chassis is available with 1-4 RF over fiber receivers with 8-32 outputs, depending on configuration, and only uses 1RU of rack space. All 8-32 channels can be lossless when coupled with correct RX gain on the ViaLiteHD GPS RF over fiber receiver.

ViaLite’s new System Designer tool has been developed to assist users with the design of complex RF over fiber Satcom systems, using multiple DWDM products. The tool allows users to predict and validate the performance of their end solution. The software allows the user to select and ‘drag and drop’ a variety of components to create their proposed system.

The new ViaLiteHD ODE-MINI is a compact and versatile outdoor enclose with a good deal of features for its size. It can house one or two Blue OEM Links, which can be any ViaLite RF band to 4.2 GHz, or a C-Band Link. Options include: fully integrated SNMP, Mini Ethernet Switch and LNA/B Power.
