OMNISTAR® GX2-RX1000B
Forward Path Receiver
The Omnistar GX2 forward path receiver is designed for headend and hub applications using 1310 or 1550 nm
wavelengths. Gain and slope controls are provided to easily accommodate varying link budgets as well as headend
splitting and cabling needs. The GX2-RX1000B provides a high-density solution for high bandwidth downstream
optical transport. Enhanced with PowerPC® technology by Motorola, these
receivers introduce a new found intelligence into traditional headend equipment.
The hot-swappable modules with unique embedded features, like Quick- Swap
Module Configuration, maximize in-service time by eliminating the need for
manual configuration.
The adjustable features and high RF gain of these receivers, coupled with the
full complement of other OmniStar GX2 application modules, provide extreme
flexibility for network design and fiber link optimization.
