AR3001 Analog Dual Return Receiver

Click photo to enlarge

The AR3001 is a dual analog return path receiver (RPR). Its compact design (single-width module) makes it the highest density packaging in the market. It allows the operator to install up to 28 return path receivers in one 3RU chassis.

The high output power of the AR3001 allows passive RF splitting, saving rack space and increasing reliability.

This compact design minimizes rack space requirements in the headend and hubs, and enhances deployment of traditional HFC, passive HFC and fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) networks.

Product Features

•  Dynamic optical input range –12 to +1 dBm at 1550 nm and –10 to +2 dBm at 1310 nm
•  High RF output (–31 dBmV/Hz typ)
•  RF output gain control with local or remote status-monitoring
•  High packaging density (up to 28 receivers per chassis)
•  Front access –20 dB output test points
•  Hot plug-in/out
•  Local and remote status monitor capability
•  Occupies one full-depth slot

The AR3001H provides two high gain dual analog return path receivers (RPRs) in a single chassis module and supports the Next Generation Network Architecture (NGNA) guidelines for the evolution of HFC architectures. The high output power of the AR3001H allows passive RF splitting while increasing reliability.

Its compact design (single-width module) makes it the highest density packaging in the market. It allows the operator to install up to 28 return path receivers in one 3RU chassis. This compact design minimizes rack space requirements in the headend and hubs, and enhances deployment of traditional HFC, passive HFC and fiber to the home (FTTH) networks.


Product Features

•  5–100 MHz RF bandwidth
•  High dynamic optical input range:
   •  1310 nm: –18 to –3 dBm
   •  1550 nm: –20 to –4 dBm
•  High –1 dBmV/Hz RF output
•  RF output gain control with local or remote status monitoring
•  High packaging density (up to 28 receivers per chassis)
•  Front access –20dB output test ports
•  Hot plug-in/out
•  Local and remote status monitor capability
•  Occupies one full-depth slot

AB02S1S A/B Alternate Routing Switch, 5–250 MHz

Click photo to enlarge

The AB02S1S-0-00 Alternate Routing Switch is an external A/B switch designed to select an RF signal from one of its two inputs and deliver that signal to its output. With a 5–250 MHz passband, the switch provides economic and reliable support for implementing optical return path redundancy between various portions of the network where indoor receivers are deployed.

Route selection is based on DC voltages from the analog receivers, and the switch position is determined by the presence or absence of voltages at the inputs of the switch.

The AB02S1S is designed to operate with all Aurora Networks' products that have external A/B switch drive logic such as the AR3001 Analog Dual Return Receiver, DR3002 Dual Digital Receiver or DR3021 Dual Return Channel Digital Receiver.


Product Features

•  Electronic switching between two RF inputs for reliable output
•  5–250 MHz passband
•  Fast switching speed (<10 ms typical)
•  Powered by DC voltage levels on RF inputs
•  Supports multiple configurations of redundant RF receivers
•  Extremely small form factor and requires no rack space
•  Low insertion loss
•  LED indicators for DC power presence and selected switch position
