Description
The J3U platform (see J3U Platform Overview) is a 19” 3RU chassis that accommodates (among other things) 16 pluggable, hot swappable fiber optic RF signal transport modules. Each RFoF J3U Quad plug-in module can accommodate up to four fiber transmitter and/or fiber receivers (in any combination). A single 3RU chassis can house up to 64 transmitter and/ or receiver RFoF subassemblies. The individual transmitter and receiver subassemblies are not pluggable.
Inline digital attenuators (0.5 dB steps) enable both transmitter and receiver RF gain control. Both manual gain adjust (MGC) and closed loop automatic gain control (AGC) are supported in the fiber transmitters and receivers. MGC and AGC modes enable optimization of spurious free dynamic range (SFDR), noise figure, linearity (P1dB and IIP3), and RF gain over a wide variety of optical loss budgets and RF signal levels.
Transmitters feature linear uncooled isolated DFB laser diodes. Receivers feature high performance InGaAs photodiodes. The standard transport RF frequency band is 30 – 3,000 MHz. Options exist for extending the frequency range to 1 MHz on the lower end and 6 GHz on the higher end.
The RF interface is 50Ω SMA. LC/APC optical connectors are standard on Quad plug-in modules to maintain low optical reflections throughout the fiber plant. Single bi-directional links transported on a single fiber are realized by integrating a WDM within the fiber optic plug-in modules. More complex traffic architectures may be realized by using external rack mount CWDM Multiplexers.
Built-in RF shielding facilitates low EMI/EMC/RF interference. RF signal transport modules within the J3U platform may be monitored and controled in a number of ways. Locally, LEDs on the modules provide health and status indications for each individual transmitter and receiver. There are multiple ways to monitor and control modules remotely when using the JS14 managed switch module within a connected chassis. Administrators may access the RF modules via an SSH command line interface, tabular Web UI, Managed RFoF graphical user interface (GUI), and SNMP v2 and v3 (see JS14 Managed Switch datasheet).
