Theory Of Operation

The USU RF to Fiber Modules provide a single-band link from a Head-End

Distribution center to multiple local antennae. RF Signals are distributed over a pair

Single-Mode Fiber-Optic Distribution Lines to each USU Remote.

Each Head-End Module can interface to multiple Remote Modules, the number depending

upon the Head-End Model.

The Head-End Modules do not

transmit directly out into the air.

Note that the Remote Module Fiber-Optic I/O's are band specific, but the Head-End

Fiber-Optic I/O's are not; the Head-End I/O's may be used for any band.
